Every year, students at MTSU have the opportunity to take an "alternative" breaks. Students who participate pay a minimal fee to go somewhere in the United States to perform a needed community service. Past trips have been to Pipestem, West Virginia; Franklin, North Carolina; and Cranks, Kentucky. Some of the volunteer opportunities include indoor/outdoor construction, home repairs, child services, and serving food for local soup kitchens. Alternative Spring Break is designed to provide students an opportunity to interact with people in an environment that is different from the normal college one.
