Getting Involved

"A CSB/SJU education is not cheap. Part of what you pay for as students is the network of people that have come before you that want to help you. It is all of our responsibilities to build that network and to make it thrive." - Josh Otto '01

"I would encourage you to consider volunteering in some capacity at SJU...Volunteering has become a cornerstone of my life and has helped me feel fulfilled. I know many of you are incredibly active and gifted and share those wonderful talents, time and treasures in so many ways. Thank you in advance for your help to our Alma Mater." - Jim Platten '74
