List of Christian Institutions with Required Service Needed

Good Morning all:

I would be interested in knowing of institutions that require service.  A
colleague has asked for a number of schools to begin a program review.
Specifically, christian based school would be most helpful.  Thank you!

His message is below...

I am looking for any information you might be able to share with me on
institutions of higher
education that have programs similar to ours.  We require Community Service
of all of our students.  They must complete 20 hours of such service each
full time semester that they attend Liberty in order to graduate.  The first
two semesters they enroll in a required course taught by our faculty/staff.
These courses are designed to equip them to be informed and informative
servants in the community and churches in the surrounding area.  In these
courses our focus is upon ethical theory, or moral philosophy in the first
semester, and then applied ethics, dealing with specific issues that our
students customarily face in their service activates, in the second
semester.  What I am hoping you can direct me to are programs similar to
ours in which students must take a required course (or courses) that
prepares them for their required service, and in which there is a close
nexus between the courses and the service program itself.  This may be a
tall order, as I think we have a somewhat unique program in terms of its
specifics, but even if you can direct me to programs that are similar in any
way, this would be greatly appreciated.  We are a Christian institution, of
course, so this has a significant bearing on our program.  The requirements
of the review are that we compare our program with three national and two
Virginia institutions that have comparable programs. Thank you for your
assistance.
