An Ideal World by Emanuel Hemsi We did an exercise during LCS Orientation this fall, in which we split the LCS staffers into a few different groups and gave each group the task of building (out of a box of stuff that we had) the ideal Community Service Campus. At first they all looked at Becca and I with blank stares and it seemed as though they were thinking, have you guys lost it, we’re going to take a bunch of rubber and paper and plastic thinas in this box and put them on the floor and this will be productive. Well in the end, each group had a great little layout of a Community Service Campus. All the layouts had a transportation system going straight from the community service center to every- where volunteering could happen. There were large central offices with great computer systems so that any volunteer opportunity could be found with the push of a button. There were alumni networks set up, there were Cafes, there were underground passages, there were all sorts of things that people thought of with this exercise. All the different aspects of the Ideal Community Service Campus that were discussed made me so excited about having another semester as LCS Vice-president and at least having the chance to help LCS accom- plish some of these ideas that everyone had about what an Ideal Community Service Campus meant. As one of the heads of LCS, I wanted to achieve all the goals, every single one of them and I wanted LCS to be the center and for Tufts to be this ideal campus. On a larger level I’ve always wanted to make the world the ideal world (a lofty life goal that many people have). The great thing about the Leonard Carmichael Society is that we all are doing something to make the world the ideal world. When I leave LCS, my goals of having every student at Tufts volunteer in some way, giving every organization that calls us all the volunteers that they want, making LCS a great resource to find jobs in not-for-profit organizations, being more closely connected with the faculty of the University, being connected with all our Alumni, and on and on. There are so many things that I could imagine happening to make LCS perfect. LCS staffers and volunteers work towards making a difference. We may not always actually make a difference in the lives of the people that we’re trying to help but we almost always make a difference in our own lives. Though we will never achieve all the ideals that we set out for ourselves when we think of the Ideal Community Service Campus, we do begin to help make the world an Ideal World. Reflections of a president by Rebecca Tenney

As my term as President of LCS comes to an end, I’m suddenly gripped with this desire to hold on, to reflect, and to think about what it all meant. I look at all the things Emanuel and I have accomplished, and I think about all the things we still want to do, but which just won’t happen. All those plans we made. All those ideas we had. All those dreams we shared. We were naive then. We sat in the LCS office last December complaining because it was too cold or too hot, and pacing up and down as we wondered what the hell we were supposed to do now. What did we know about leading such a largegroup? What did it mean that we had to plan orientation before we left for winter break? What did we know about keeping track of such a large budget? Well, we learned. We made so many mistakes, it’s embarrassing. We struggled through finding out the rights and wrongs. We argued with administrators and community members over dumb things. We spent time worrying about things we had no control over. BUT WE LEARNED. We got to know many people. We made new friends. We learned how to work together and get things done. Yes, some things slipped by us, but overall we accomplished a lot. Our first semester was so funny. Manny and I barely knew each other, and I was honestly worried about how we would get along. We seemed so different, and even though we’d both been involved in LCS for more than two years, and we even lived in the same dorm freshman Big Brothers year, we barely knew each other. Somehow it dicked though. We got to know each other’s byAri Dubelman styles (thank goodness they are different), and we learned to use our strengths and weaknesses The Big Brother program was started less than three years ago and already is going to balance each other. We were trying to make a name for ourselves among the campus community strong. In conjunction with the Big Brother Association of Greater Boston our goal is to provide as student leaders, and we were trying to figure out what that really meant. positive male role models for kids in the surrounding Boston area that are currently lacking one Our LCS staff members were amazing.

We wanted to update everything, talk to community Although most weeks the big and little brothers spend time alone as a pair, we groups about ways to improve, and plan a semi-formal. We also had to plan fall orientation for occasionally hold some group events.

In the spring semester, we hope to hold a number of other group events, so And now it’s almost December and this second semester has just flown by. I sit here as to help build a sense of commonalty among the Tufts big brothers and provide other fun ways and feel so proud of what LCS has accomplished. I know there is so much more that needs to be of spending time together with the little brothers. done, and that could be done, and that should be done. But I also see how much has changed, With a great new crop of applicants for next spring, the Tufts Community has shown especially in the last year. We’ve added new programs, held a successful semi-formal, raised a great concern for these children and the program seems to have a very bright future ahead of it. money for various community organizations, helped many people in the surrounding communities, However, there are still approximately 500 little boys in the Boston area on a wait list for Big and had fun.
