The Bennion Center is all about community. Their mission is to inspire and mobilize people to strengthen communities through learning, scholarship, and advocacy. Whether you have a few minutes in between classes, an occasional hour on a Saturday morning, or time to engage every week, there are plenty of ways for you to get involved.
- Student-Directed Programs - Get involved with the Bennion Center by choosing from one of nearly 50 Student-Directed Programs to make a positive impact in our community. Each program works with a local community partner organization to make a collective impact in areas such as education, environment, health, social justice, and arts.
- Alternative Breaks and Travel Programs- Alternative Breaks promotes lifelong activism by providing students with the experiences and skills necessary to build and organize communities through service, education, dialogue, and reflection.
Travel programs give those who want to be a traveler, rather than a tourist, the opportunity to visit distant communities and engage in hands-on experiential learning. The Bennion Center offers travel programs domestically and internationally over fall, spring, and summer breaks.
- Utah Reads - The mission of the Utah Reads program at the University of Utah is to provide effective, quality tutoring in literacy to the elementary-aged students of our community partners.
- Bennion Scholars - Bennion Scholars apply their academic interests to meet a real social concern through a Capstone Project with a community partner and faculty mentor.
- Saturday Service Projects, Drop-in Service, & More - Got 15 minutes between classes or a Saturday morning you can spare? The Bennion Center can help you turn that time into a service project that benefits our community and provides you with a sense of accomplishment beyond getting your homework done. Your classroom experience will be deeper and more meaningful when you engage with the community in projects that benefit children, refugees, people who are homeless, or programs with great goals but a shortage of volunteer help.

The Office of the Dean of Students is dedicated to being a resource to students through support, advocacy, involvement, and accountability. Our staff is ready to assist students, staff, faculty, family members, and community members with student questions, issues, and concerns.
Immigration is a complex phenomenon with broad impact—those who are directly affected by it, as well as those who are indirectly affected by their relationships with family members, friends, and loved ones. If your immigration status presents obstacles that prevent you from engaging in specific activities or fulfilling specific course criteria, confidential arrangements may be requested from the Dream Center.
Arrangements with the Dream Center will not jeopardize your student status, your financial aid, or any other part of your residence. The Dream Center offers a wide range of resources to support undocumented students (with and without DACA) as well as students from mixed-status families.
