Bard College’s 5th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Engagement on Saturday, January 17, included numerous volunteer activities on campus and at 20 sites in the Hudson Valley. More than 175 first-year students—who are on campus for three weeks of Citizen Science courses—and a number of upperclassmen, faculty, and staff leaders participated. The day's activities included grooming horses at local farms, organizing science projects with area schoolchildren, doing some heavy lifting for the electronic waste collection day for the towns of Tivoli and Red Hook, and tending to the woodland trails around the Bard College campus.
