Campus Life<br />
As an educational institution which emphasizes the values of freedom of<br />
action and taking responsibility for the community, as well as initiative and<br />
excellence, <strong>IDC</strong> <strong>Herzliya</strong> encourages students to be active in a wide range<br />
of areas in addition to their studies, and offers a variety of community<br />
service projects for students to participate in. It is our belief that promoting<br />
assistance to others and personal involvement in the community<br />
will lead our students to make community service and contributing to<br />
society part of their lives in the future. In addition, and similarly to most<br />
leading universities around the world, <strong>IDC</strong> <strong>Herzliya</strong> offers a variety of<br />
social activities to enrich student life, always striving to focus on the<br />
wellbeing of the individual student.<br />

<strong>Student</strong>s Serving the Community*<br />
The project consists of four community service programs for students,<br />
including: teaching basic study skills and leading a variety of enrichment<br />
activities for preschool children from underprivileged neighborhoods in<br />
<strong>Herzliya</strong>, in order to help their transition into first grade successfully and<br />
thus help reduce socioeconomic gaps in Israel; tutoring middle-school and<br />
high-school pupils of limited financial means in <strong>Herzliya</strong> who are struggling<br />
academically in order to prepare them for the matriculation exams, which<br />
are the gateway to obtaining a higher education; and initiating, planning and<br />
implementing social activities for various target populations in <strong>Herzliya</strong>,<br />
particularly children, youth and senior citizens, as well as mentoring new<br />
drivers and their families in order to reduce traffic accidents.<br />
