A Tradition of Making Society More Livable, Humane and Just

At Olivet College, we have a tradition of helping others through service. We believe service to others is a great way to enhance learning while getting “comfortable with the uncomfortable.” Through volunteer services and social action, all students identify and understand first-hand the civic and social challenges of our world and act with others to make our society more livable, humane and just. That’s what we mean when we say: Be More. Do Good.
