NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Southern Connecticut State University student-athletes made their final visit of the fall semester to the Beecher School in New Haven on Tuesday as part of an interactive program with fourth grade students at the school. Members of the field hockey, men’s soccer and volleyball teams took part in today’s session, which featured language arts and math work in small groups. The student-athletes and Beecher students capped off a strong semester of work with a pizza party.
The Owls continue to work with the youngsters in preparation for testing that will take place during the spring semester.
This program is just one example of many community outreach events that SCSU student-athletes will take part in during the 2009-10 academic year as part of the Tim Greer Insurance Agency Community Service Cup.
Initiated in September, 2008, the ‘Community Service Cup’ program provides a competitive format that allows student-athletes to gain an enriched experience through engagement with the on-campus and local communities by supporting ventures of traditional citizens, campus community members and peer students and student-athletes. SCSU student-athletes volunteered nearly 2,000 hours of their time to numerous outreach efforts, both on-campus and in Greater New Haven, during the 2008-09 academic year.
