Top Five for Service, 32nd Overall

For the seventh year in a row, Hobart and William Smith are among the top five U.S. liberal arts institutions for service, according to Washington Monthly. The annual rankings also put the Colleges at 32nd among liberal arts schools overall, jumping 15 spots in the ranking from last year.

The service recognition is due in no small part to the Center for Community Engagement and Service Learning and programs like Summer of Service, which places HWS interns in local organizations each summer. Summer of Service is generously supported by Thomas J. Patchett
’88, Trustee Margueritte Murphy and Brian Cooper, with grant funding through the Boys and Girls Club of Geneva and Geneva 2030, and housing sponsored by Sodexo.
