For kinesiology professor Chad Sutherland, the phrase “volunteer work” is a misnomer.
“I don’t really view it as work,” he says.
“I view it as something everyone should be doing: getting involved and helping in the things that you love to do, whether that’s bringing expertise to an area or offering an extra set of hands. It’s all important, and we need it more than ever right now.”
