Held during the fall and spring semesters, WKU students are given the opportunity to spend their breaks giving back to various community service projects. Alternative break trips incorporate cultural experiences along with opportunities to volunteer across the region. Past alternative breaks have included trips to Savannah, GA; Charleston, SC; Memphis, TN; Tuscaloosa, AL; Mobile, AL; New Orleans, LA; Washington D.C.; and Chicago, IL.  Students are selected on their previous community service work and level of involvement and commitment.
