Community Engagement
Here on our Bluff, community engagement unites us. Each year, about 8,000 students, faculty and staff participate, making service to others an important part of our campus culture. In fact, for the sixth consecutive year, Duquesne has been named to the President`s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll in recognition of the University`s commitment to volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement.Most popular related searches
