M3C Fellows at SNC have a busy year! Hours of service, training, learning, and fun, fill some of their time between classes and homework. The M3C Fellows participate in local, national, and international service and movements. They develop their leadership skills. Fellows dedicate many evenings and weekends to service; learning about themselves and others, and developing lasting friendships.

They make a difference!

Moving in early and training Students get the chance to move in four days earlier than their fellow first year students. This allows time for training as well as getting to know the M3C team and the campus.

Team building The program offers opportunities for fellows to get to know one another and learn each other's strengths. There are various opportunities throughout the year and they are a lot of fun!

Retreats Once or twice a year the entire group of fellows get together for a retreat. These retreats help students to reflect on their service, build skills, as well as to spend time with people who care about similar issues.

Friends The students work together for an entire year for tutoring, meetings weekly, retreats, trainings. Also, as part of the program, the students are expected to recruit five non-M3C fellows to join them in service.

Tutoring One of the main programs the M3C fellows work with is the tutoring program. The program is designed to allow the M3C fellow to work one-on-one with the students who are considered "at risk" to help them with their basic reading and writing skills and get excited about school.

Kids 2 Campus Day This event is sponsored by the M3C fellows. It is held on one of the spring Advisement days so none of the fellows have class. This is usually in April, so the students have been spending almost an entire academic year with their mentors.  The are bussed to the campus and taken on tours by the fellows and some of their recruits. This is a great opportunity to spend time with the students outside of tutoring and get them interested in college.

Various service opportunities The fellows need to get 300 hours of community service (this does include some training hours). The fellows are responsible for finding service opportunities that meets the requirements of the program, but the program does bring up some opportunities open to the group's participation throughout the year.

TRIPS TRIPS is an acronym for Turning Responsibility into Powerful Service. Students have the opportunity to go on a trip over winter or spring break. They spend this week at a service location devoted to service for the organization. Each TRIP has a focus for their service ranging from homelessness, urban education, AIDS awareness, working with special needs and more. This is a great opportunity to do something with their break as well as get close to 40 hours of service towards the total.

RIOT The Reaching, Inspiring, Overcoming, Together (RIOT) program works with "at risk" high school students interested in attending college. M3C fellows host their students at SNC on eight Saturdays throughout the year. They create a fun atmosphere while looking through college preparation activities.

Award-winning M3C fellows have won numerous awards and scholarships as a result of their leadership on campus and in the community. Their year as an AmeriCorps member prepares them well to make a difference.
