This\u00a0graph is based on data from the Higher Education Research Institute (HERI) American Freshman survey. I don’t think I have seen the trend presented in one place and continuing until 2015, so I offer the\u00a0graph for\u00a0public consumption. The trend\u00a0is consistent with what we know about high school civics. Service programs became much more popular after the 1980s, as new initiatives, such as the federal Learn & Serve America grants, came online. Rates of volunteering\u00a0have plateaued\u00a0since ca. 2010, but at high levels. Service is pretty much expected of today’s prospective college students. However, volunteering\u00a0is strongly correlated with socioeconomic\u00a0advantage. People of the same age as these admitted freshman who are not going to college volunteer at much lower rates<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
