Social Wheel

On the universal social wheel, I see myself in the Socially Responsible Daily Behavior and the Direct Service.
I fit into the Socially Responsible Daily Behavior because I do my part to make the world a better place each day.  I recycle and pick up trash on campus.  I adhere to the Wartburg Honor Code.  I am involved in student employment and greet others who are just walking by.  I fit into Direct Service by being apart of the Volunteer Action Center and service trips.  I volunteered at a haunted house and I plan on going on a service trip during winter break.
These aspects affect me in a good way.  I feel good knowing I am helping others and their way of living.  In turn, it also makes others feel good.  By participating in direct service, I physically help others.  I might help improve someone's house, feed the homeless, or just visit with them.  I think this is the most rewarding action one can do.  Being socially responsible daily is rewarding, but the effects are not immediate.  They have more long-term effects or results, like recycling or riding your bike instead of driving a car.
