An alternative break is a trip where a group of college students (usually 10-12 per trip) engage in volunteer service, typically for a week. Alternative break trips originated with college students in the early 1980s as a counter to "traditional" spring break trips. These trips are usually led by 2 "site leaders" who are students that have already participated in an alternative break, and have gone through extensive leadership training.
Alternative breaks may occur during students’ fall, winter, weekend, or summer school breaks. Each trip has a focus on a particular social issue, such as poverty, education reform, refugee resettlement, the environment, healthcare reform, mental health, immigration, animal care, and many more. Students learn about the social issues and then perform week-long projects with local non-profit organizations. Thus, students have the opportunity to connect and collaborate with different community partners Alternative breaks are also drug and alcohol-free experiences, with a heavy emphasis on group and individual reflection.
Alternative may refer to Aida's version.
www.jmu.edu/abp Each year James Madison University offers student led and developed service trips to locations in the United States and abroad. Each service team typically consists of 8 student participants, two student co-leaders and a faculty or staff learning partner. Most trips take place during the spring break period, but trips are offered at all of the JMU academic breaks. While working with national and international communities, the James Madison University Alternative Break Program trains and immerses students in a purposeful service experience designed to connect students and community members while enhancing personal growth, mutual awareness and life-long learning.

After World War 2, the Austrian-Hungarian Empire collapses as rebellions, separatist movements and violence plunge the country into chaos. It was mainly Austrian provinces that were plunged into chaos as Hungary became a separate country. The rest of the Empire soon collapsed into many independent states. Some countries would go on to unite with Yugoslavia, others would remain independent. In this video you will see new countries becoming independent following the collapse of the Empire. This video is not realistic so if you want a realistic video, then this is not the video for you. Thanks for watching. Please like, comment, share and subscribe.

A group of ten adventurous and snow-loving Badgers set out on a winter break trip from Madison, WI to Breckenridge, CO to volunteer at the Breck Outdoor Education Center adaptive ski program. We laughed, we cried (driving through Nebraska), we jumped around at Ullr Fest, and above all we had a great time with our service learning experience out on some of the country's best slopes!
