CURE is designed for students to engage, connect, and act.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Be intentional<\/strong> in selecting your schedule of concurrent sessions – attend sessions that strike your interests, passions, and goals; have back-up options!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Collaborate and lean in<\/strong> – network with community partners and presenters; form groups\/teams to serve; stop and reflect with yourself and others!<\/li>\n
  • Commit to action and service<\/strong> – at the end of CURE have a plan for your service experience; schedule your service experience (as required for USI 101).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
