On Campus
Volunteering on campus is becoming more and more popular among alumni of all ages. With the advent of new programs and new accommodation offerings, you can consider helping the campus community throughout the year, for a few days or over several months. There are many needs and opportunities for you to contribute time and talent in a meaningful way, ranging from pulling broom (invasive species), to carrying out research on fellow alumni, facilitating student workshops about life after Pearson, to training faculty and staff on matters of your expertise. As a volunteer, in exchange for just 4 hours of work daily, we offer you a shared room, meals in the cafeteria, and access to campus facilities (like the pool, the gym, the library) as you become part of the campus community and fully engage in residential life.
