Lakeland College Community Service Initiative (CSI)

At Lakeland, 100 percent community service involvement is important and that's why CSI was developed. CSI is an initiative that connects staff, faculty and students to the Lakeland and greater Sheboygan communities. CSI encourages them to volunteer and to make the community an overall better place. With CSI, volunteers gain valuable skills that will benefit their future and last a lifetime.

  • CSI connects Lakeland to the community by:
  • Service Learning projects (Student as Practitioner)
  • Internships
  • Student organizations
  • Faculty Outreach
