AIC Students: Good Neighbors

AIC students are busy!  They’re not just occupied with their own studies or athletics or organizations and clubs on campus. They’re invested in helping the greater community as well.

This month, more than 100 students volunteered to help neighbors who needed assistance with fall clean up. They rose early Sunday morning to get the job done and help people on nearly a dozen streets surrounding the College.
