Alternative Spring Break (ASB)
The ISU chapter of Alternative Spring Break is a wonderful way for students (and faculty/staff) to volunteer and travel across the United States. ASB offers the opportunity for students to meet new people on and off campus while traveling throughout the country to volunteer, learn about current social issues, and experience different cultures while making a positive change. ASB is unique because it offers participants an inexpensive way to learn about themselves, others, and the values of service while having the time of their life!
