Enroll in the Trained
Volunteer Corp
- and
Earn Academic
Credit
Thinking about which classes to
choose for Winter term? Register to
make a difference in someone's life
by enrolling in the Trained Volunteer
Corps (TVC). TVC is a two to four
credit class which includes working
in the community (with illiterate
adults, homeless people, youths at
risk, or elderly in need of support),
training sessions so you can excel at
your job, and becoming a member of
an active, supportive organization.
In the TVC you learn from life itself,
through a work experience outside
the classroom. Your interests will be
matched with community needs.
You may want to tutor a grand-
mother who never learned to read
and has a goal of reading a bedtime
story to her grandchildren. You may
tutor an ex-offender who recognizes
a high school degree is a first step to
reentry into the community. Perhaps
you would help a homeless family
decide how to find permanent
shelter. You could become a mentor
for a lonely and confused child who
feels she has no one to talk with.
And there are senior citizens in our
community who need a companion -
someone to talk with them or help
with their daily tasks. Register for
Sociology 389 (TVC) for Winter term
to join in this learning experience.
In addition to the TVC course, the
TVC student organization is forming
and needs both student leaders and
members. This group will provide a
supportive environment for students
who work in the community to share
information about actions people can
take to make a difference.
TVC's goals are to provide needed
services to vulnerable people in our
community and to involve as many
students as possible in community
activities. If you are interested in
TVC, either the course or the organi-
zation, please call 763-3548 or stop
by Room 2205, Michigan Union to
obtain more information.

An Experience You Won't Forget
"Common Ties" is a series of powerful programs which focuses on AIDS and people's reaction
to the disease. One highlight of the program is the display of quilts from the NAMES Pro-
ject's AIDS Memorial Quilt on exhibit in the Art Lounge throughout the series. The "Com-
mon Ties" Programs, which run through December 2, are free of charge and open to the pub-
Take Part in Planning
S.E.R.V.E. Week
It's that time of year - plan-
ning for S.E.R.V.E. Week '91.
What is S.E.R.V.E. Week? It's
a week-long celebration of
community service at the
University of Michigan.
Activities sponsored by
S.E.R.V.E. and by student or-
ganizations dedicated to
service include fundraisers,
speakers, an "Into the
Streets" day where students,
faculty, and staff work
together on service projects
throughout the community,
and many other service ac-
tivities. Our goal is to
celebrate and promote
student involvement in the
community and working
toward social change.
Don't worry about taking
time away from your studies
during this month, though.
There won't be a significant
time commitment during
December as you scramble to
finish all those term papers
and finals, but we will be
busy next semester.
Last year, the first S.E.R.V.E.
week ever, was a great
success. And 1991's will be
bigger and better. If you
would like to help make this
happen, please attend the
first planning meeting on
Tuesday, December 4, at 8:00
p.m. in the Crofoot Room of
the Michigan Union.

Service and Learning
Intersect with Project
Community
Project Community is a U-M
service-learning course offering
Sociology and Education credit
with more than 40 field place-
ments in Chemical Dependency,
Criminal Justice, Education,
Environmental Advocacy and
Health and Special Populations.
Following are insights written by
students who participated in
Project Community during the
Winter 1990 term.
"I came to know I really like the
kids at the site. I came in seeing
them as 'juvenile delinquents';
they were bad kids and de-
served to be punished. I left
seeing them as warm, caring, in-
tellectual, sensitive human
beings. I really wish I could help
them to change their lives
because they have so much
potential ... I will miss them."
I became aware of my own
prejudices. They are now less
than when I came in, but they
are so internally ground into me.
Some will be hard to change. At
least I am aware of them; that's
the first step."
Become a part of Project
Community. To obtain more
information, stop by Room 2205,
Michigan Union, during office
hours (Monday through Friday,
8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
