Section 99101 Of Chapter 2. Human Corps From California Education Code >> Division 14. >> Title 3. >> Part 65. >> Chapter 2.
99101
. There is hereby created a program known as The Human Corps
within the University of California and the California State
University. The California Community Colleges, proprietary schools,
and member institutions of the Association of Independent California
Colleges and Universities are strongly encouraged to implement Human
Corps programs. The purpose of the corps is to provide every student
an ongoing opportunity throughout his or her college career to
participate in a community service activity. Toward this goal,
beginning in the fall term in 1988, full-time students, including
both undergraduate and graduate students, entering the University of
California, the California State University, or an institution that
is a member of the Association of Independent California Colleges and
Universities to pursue a degree shall be strongly encouraged and
expected, although not required, to participate in the Human Corps by
providing an average of 30 hours of community service in each
academic year. The segments shall determine how to encourage and
monitor student participation. The segments are strongly encouraged
to develop flexible programs that permit the widest possible student
involvement, including participation by part-time students and others
for whom participation may be difficult due to financial, academic,
personal, or other considerations.
