Community Engagement Events

As LSC-Montgomery celebrates three decades of academic excellence, innovation, and community impact, we invite students, alumni, faculty, staff, and community members to join us as we pay tribute to our past, celebrate the present, and take a bold look towards our future. Events may include concerts, art exhibits, a campus Open House, community tours, featured speakers, and fundraising campaigns. Visit our campus calendar for a list of events and check back often as new opportunities are added throughout the year.

30 for 30 Maverick Acts of Service Events

We are also excited to announce our 30 for 30 Maverick Acts of Service initiative focused on creating community service-focused opportunities for students, faculty, and staff. During our year of celebration, all Mavericks will be invited to participate in thirty different events aimed at fostering community engagement, building partnerships, and promoting social responsibility. Participants will have the opportunity to receive limited edition 30 for 30 Maverick Acts of Service swag, as well as the option to record their philanthropy service hours

Ready to make an impact, have fun, and serve alongside Maverick faculty, staff, and students? It's as easy as attending one (or hopefully more!) of our service events listed below. You can even fill out our Maverick Acts of Service Interest form, and we'll contact you with monthly service opportunities. 

Celebrate our anniversary with us by making a difference in our community. Go Mavericks!
