3. Become a Tiger Pal
A program called "TigerPals" will pair DePauw student-athletes with kindergarten through 5th graders in Greencastle and other area school districts. Being a "Tiger Pal" entails DePauw student-athletes writing letters, reading virtual books, and doing virtual check-ins with local youth. The commitment expectation would be for DePauw student-athletes to have some form of contact with the young student on a weekly or every other week basis. If you are a student-athlete and are interested in becoming a Tiger Pal, you can sign up using this form.
