Wartburg College Social Change Wheel

The Wartburg College Social Change Wheel explains many aspects of how to be a good person, and help others in your community. The Wartburg example in specific gives many examples which pertain to the campus and what students can do to be involved while at Wartburg. These can include such things as being intentionally involved in large projects, or doing simple things to make life on campus more enjoyable for everyone.

There are eight different branches -Direct Service, Community/ Economic Development, Voting/ Formal Political Activities, Direct Action Strategies, Grass-roots Political Activity/ Public Policy Work, Community Building, Advocacy through Community Education, and Socially Responsible Daily Behavior. These areas include such activities as Service Trips, or being a Resident Assistant. It also includes things which each of us can carry out in our day-to-day lives; helping keep the bathrooms and common areas clean, recycling, greeting everyone on campus (regardless of whether or not you know them), confronting inappropriate behavior, and many more.
