Welcome to another academic year and a new season of “Meet Princeton!” Today, we have a very special episode. Service is core to Princeton’s mission. In fact, the University’s unofficial motto is “In the Nation’s Service and the Service of Humanity.” So, instead of hearing from Vivian and Bryant, we hand the mic over to two student correspondents in the John H. Pace Jr. ’39 Center for Civic Engagement: Christine Shin ’25 and Isabella Gomes ’25. Christine and Isabella share a bit about how why they became involved in the Pace Center and interview two student-volunteers Ana Blanco ’23 and Hannah Bein ’22, each of whom pursue significant service work that aligns with their academic and extracurricular interests.

We’d like to thank Gianna Melchionda ’24 and Savannah Pobre ’23 for their help in producing the episode, along with Gwen McNamara, assistant director for communications, Pace Center, for her partnership on the project.
