With the university motto, Ut Prosim, (That I May Serve) at our core, the Office of Student-Athlete Development assists student-athletes in taking advantage of the many opportunities to volunteer throughout their college experience. Teams partner with national and local community organizations and volunteer their time at community-wide events. Involvement in these initiatives helps maintain and improve the positive relationship between student-athletes and the surrounding community. Reading to elementary school students, visiting children’s hospitals and assisting with local food drives are just a few of the many ways Virginia Tech student-athletes give back.
