We encourage Hanover College students to become involved in the Center for Child Development. Student involvement could include: volunteering as a student worker, creating short programs for children or staff (e.g., a series of lessons in a foreign language), conducting observations or research, and completing the "early childhood" or "non profit" Career Connections Programs (CCPs) or serving as a summer intern. We welcome hearing from students with a variety of interests, ranging from child development to family life to teaching and learning processes to the humanities.
