Our research question is, how many college students fulfill community service and chapel hours at Warner Pacific? This topic interested us because we are interested to learn how many Warner students have the time to fulfill their service and chapel hours.

The purpose of this study was to “test the hypothesis that undergraduate ethics students who engage in community service work as part of their course requirements will score higher at the end of the semester on a test of moral reasoning than students who do not.” This study was made through cognitive and social/experiential approaches. The results of this experiment supported the hypothesis. The finding of this study was that there was no significant correlation between participation in community service work in the past and a student’s pre-test DIT. Basically, according to this study requiring community service hours at schools will most likely drive away students from the real purpose of serving others. This article will help our research topic because we can relate our results later on with this study and compare and contrast our
