Belmont students reach out to city - The Tennessean
From today's Tennessean: More than 500 of Belmont University's approximately 800 freshmen and transfer students decided to get out and do something for their city - their new city, in most cases - yesterday morning, the start of their third day on campus. ... The students did voluntary community service for about two hours at Edwin and Percy Warner parks in west Nashville and at four Metro parks closer to Belmont's campus near Music Row. It was part of a week of activities designed to help the students make the transition to college life and Belmont's way of doing things.
