Tucker Program: Habitat for Humanity, SEAD
History with Tucker: "I volunteered with SEAD and started volunteering for Habitat for Humanity my sophomore year. I became a Habitat Chair junior year, and now this year I have been the student director."
What Tucker Means to Me: "Tucker is a huge resource. Without the Tucker Foundation acting as an organizational umbrella for so many service programs on campus, students would be lacking in so many important volunteer opportunities."

SEAD is an enrichment program that strives to expose its students to experiences they may have never had before. In doing so, we also seek to show students all of the opportunities available to them at college. Because there are students on campus at Dartmouth in the summer, we have Dartmouth student groups run various activities with the SEAD students. During the program, SEAD students have had the opportunity to learn how to salsa dance and sing a cappella. They have had the opportunity to make jewelry, play squash, making, and go hiking. Students have attended the Big Apple Circus and an amusement park. They have also gone bowling and participated in a fundraising walk for cancer research.
Generally, students have activity blocks in the afternoons and evenings after classes and study hall.
