Students without cars on campus will find it much easier to volunteer this fall. The Kernodle Center for Service Learning is sponsoring Get on the Bus!, a weekly Friday afternoon service trip featuring transportation by Elon BioBus.

The Kernodle Center for Service Learning launched a new program Friday to help students explore volunteer opportunities available to them in Alamance County and surrounding areas. The “Get on the Bus” kick-off in the Moseley Center featured a ribbon cutting by Elon University President Leo M. Lambert.
