More Than a House.
Simonelli, Richard
Winds of Change, v11 n4 p124-31 Aut 1996
For 14 years, Mountain Outreach, a program at Cumberland College (Williamsburg, Kentucky), has enabled college students to participate in community service projects. Recently, 35 students traveled to New Mexico to build a house for a Navajo elder who was unable to obtain adequate housing. Participants discuss their learning experiences and their esteem for Native American values. (LP)
