Could someone please advise what kind of activities Community Service club is involved in?

Thanks

Nick,

The Community Service club at this point primarily does tutoring with a charter school in New Haven. There are also other clubs at SOM that do service work, including:

Board Service: places students in non-profit boards
SOM Outreach: consulting projects with non-profit boards
Food for Thought: okay, self-serving, but volunteers for Food for Thought run a cafe, proceeds of which go to the internship fund which supplements summer internships for students at nonprofit or public sector internships.

I would check out the list of clubs to see more details: http://www.som.yale.edu/students/activities/clubs.asp

Also, Yale is very entrepreneurial, so if you don't see what you want to see, you're always encouraged to start something new!

Best,
