Activity that DOES NOT COUNT toward CS Log

Canned Food Drive

Donating clothes, Money, or Material Goods to any organization (i.e., “Dress for Success”, Good Will, etc.) **

Eat and Drink For Pink

Time spent for activities that specifically benefit a student organization or MUSOM in which students are required or expected to attend (i.e., AMSA’s “Jingle Bell Run,” attending the Human Gift Registry Memorial Service, etc.)

Recycling

 

** If you were involved with organizing and/or distributing the donations, then that time CAN be logged

An activity is not eligible for “logging” if you have been monetarily reimbursed for your service

Time spent traveling to your destination does not count toward your logged hrs for that activity

If you are unsure as to whether a community service activity is eligible for “logging” contact your class CSO representative(s) or current CSO president and they will be able to provide you with a     swift answer. The CSO committee members will vote on all “questionable” activities to decide whether they can be counted toward a student’s total hours.
