text: In conclusion, yes. I do believe that students should be required to do some community service. It's really not a waste of time if you actually put your heart into it. All options should be open for everybody, and i think that this is a great chance to do some good. Some students might even base their careers off of what they learn while serving the community. You never know where it'll lead when you give someone a chance to try, but you can bet the outcome will be good.
