Alternative Spring Break

Alternative Spring Break (ASB) is an experiential learning opportunity that promotes service-learning and community building. Students participate in education, direct service, and reflection in order to become life-long active citizens.

Student Leadership and Involvement, as well as some of our student organizations, host Alternative Spring Break trips each year. If you, or your student organization, are planning an Alternative Spring Break trip please let us know how we can help! 

ASB through Student Leadership and Involvement is open to any student in good academic and conduct standing at the University. You do not need previous experience in service or on campus to participate. Each trip seeks to have students from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences.

In the future, we are looking for new and unique opportunities to combine the spring break experience with service learning. If you have an idea for what our next spring break trip should entail, or you are interested in attending an alternative spring break trip, please let us know by emailing huskyhelpers@mtu.edu.
