<p>Yes, there’s a culture of service 
Many orgs are service-based (Wellesley Words on Wheels, for example), and there’s a day of service every year where students can volunteer their time. </p>
<p>While I won’t say that service dominates the campus atmosphere, it’s much more prevalent in retrospect than I had originally thought. Perhaps students don’t go rushing out in hordes to selflessly fling their time and energy into volunteer projects, but donating one’s resources is regarded highly by the community and students do offer what they can.</p>
