Type of Service: Direct
Service
Needs Met/Impact Made:
The high school students, as recipients of the service, felt encouraged by their colege mentors. They indicated it was somewhat difficult to get to know the college students at first, but apreciated the relationships later. Some students felt that the joint production was a positive experience and were interested in participating again. The high school students indicated that they would, in general, like to participate in more combined plays and extend the Central High School theater season because they felt like they learned a lot from their Northern State University mentors, especially in the areas of stage management and costuming.
