Student Activities
Grace students often get involved on campus by participating in campus groups or activities. The Student Activities Board (SAB) regularly plans special events on and off-campus. Some favorites include: Price is Right night, Ritter's Night, Pizza Hut night, and SAB Blowout, and themed semi-formal events. Recent semi-formals have included Swing Dance and '90s Night.
Many students also participate in SERVE teams, which are student-led volunteer groups. Grace has more than 20 SERVE teams, which participate in both on and off-campus volunteer work. Some popular SERVE teams include: Boys and Girls Club, College Mentors for Kids, Our Father's House (serving at a local soup kitchen), and Grace Village (a team that visits the elderly in a local retirement home).

“If it is to be done well, child-rearing requires, more than most activities of life, a good deal of decentering from one’s own needs and perspectives. Such decentering is relatively easy when a society is stable and when there is an extended, supportive structure that the parent can depend upon.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
