- COMMUNITY RESOURCES
- Valparaiso University’s location gives you a unique opportunity to experience both a small-town community and an urban city’s resources. The community of Valpo itself offers you numerous opportunities to participate in community service, community arts programs and traditional town events. The larger northwest Indiana region offers a diversity of community service organizations, small and large commercial groups and businesses, and fine arts programs to those who are interested. The resources of Chicago, less than an hour away, can give you an even deeper look into the cultural, the political, the economic, and the social aspects of various fields of interest. Taking advantage of these resources and making the most of opportunities to get into the community can help you decide on a field of study.
