Lisa Borchardt beams whenever she gets a phone call from a service agency asking for a Wesleyan student volunteer.

“That speaks highly of the quality and excellence of our students,” said Borchardt.

Fifteen student members of Nebraska Wesleyan’s Global 服务学习 organization traveled to Rosebud Indian Reservation during their recent winter break hoping to help its residents clean, 排序, and organize a thrift store.

That task was accomplished. Perhaps their bigger accomplishment was the life lessons they brought back to Lincoln.
