Among the many events and activities celebrating Chico State’s 125^th anniversary, the My Service Counts campaign challenged the campus community (students, faculty and staff) to perform 125,000 hours of service in 2012. In addition, the University asked parents of current students, Chico State alumni, and friends of the University to help in the effort. By year’s end, almost 3,000 individual participants and more than 200 groups not only met the challenge but exceeded it.
