GREENEVILLE<\/strong> — Participants in the Upward Bound<\/a> and Upward Bound Math and Science<\/a> precollege programs at Tusculum University<\/a> learned more about the value of community service during a recent work day on campus and in the community.<\/h3>\n

One group of students conducted additional work on the Tusculum Nature Trail, which sustained damage from Hurricane Helene. Tusculum students worked with faculty and staff during the second Nettie Fowler McCormick Service Day<\/a> in October to reopen the trail with some clearing work. Upward Bound and Upward Bound Math and Science participants continued the work.<\/p>\n

Aaron Barnett, an Upward Bound Math and Science advisor, said students in these two programs cut items, reraked and widened trails and put benches back in place. He said they were enthusiastic about their work and made the trail even more usable by the community and the Tusculum family.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of our participants in the two programs have pride in this campus because they participate in the Summer Academy at Tusculum,\u201d Barnett said. \u201cSome of them, especially the ones that worked on this project, have come to the academy since they were freshmen. They want to see the campus do well.\u201d<\/p>\n

The trail runs between the Doak House Museum<\/a> and the Paul E. Hayden Educational Wetland and is open to the community every day of the year during daylight hours.<\/p>\n

The second group assisted at the C.A.R.E. Center in Greeneville, sorting donations for hurricane relief. Upward Bound and Upward Bound Math and Science have partnered with that agency before, so the recent work was an extension of the relationship. Previously, the students have cleaned C.A.R.E. facility and cooked and served meals.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important for the students to participate in this work to develop them as good citizens,\u201d said Erin Frizzell, director of Upward Bound. \u201cPerforming this work makes them well-rounded students who understand the value of community service as part of their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stacey McGill, director of Upward Bound Math and Science, said projects like these teach the students that they need to give back to the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese students receive tremendous support from the community, so it is important they return the favor by helping others,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen everyone chips in to help, the quality of life and community spirit is so much higher. Learning that approach at an early stage in life will help foster an appreciation for one\u2019s connection to the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

After the students completed their work at both places, they participated in a tailgate on campus and were able to attend a home football game. Barnett said Upward Bound and Upward Bound Math and Science try to combine a scholastic or service project with a fun activity.<\/p>\n
