For some freshmen, service in the community started even before classes began. Arts & Sciences sophomore Tobi Lee (standing), a counselor with the Leadership Through Service program, guides freshman participants in the program as they prepare to paint murals at Hamilton Elementary School in St. Louis last month. Leadership Through Service is a three-day pre-orientation program offered through the Community Service Office aimed at helping incoming students explore the St. Louis community while acclimating to college life. The program includes multiple community service projects, leadership training, speakers and workshops. Seventy-two freshmen participated this year, led by 15 upperclass students.
