Serving Your New Community
Serving Your New Community (SYNC) is a volunteering opportunity to facilitate the connection between incoming students and their new community. Students have the chance to volunteer with community partners in various locations throughout the Palouse to learn about their new community, see more of their new surroundings, and meet other incoming students.
