Suddenly, it was as if darkness turned to light and the boy became energized.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">&#8220;Your hair is longer,&#8221; he told Ukropina, remembering him from a visit in January.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">For 30 minutes, Ukropina and another Loyola football player, Eamon McOsker, gave an economics lesson to a small group of students at Hillsides, a Pasadena-based center that helps educate youths who were abused or need special attention. In another classroom was Stanford-bound shotputter Nick Budincich and Michigan-bound student Joe Gaule.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">Going out into the community and volunteering is a requirement every Loyola senior must fulfill, but this project is a pilot program run by economics teacher Brian Held in an attempt to teach his own advanced placement economics students lessons while also passing along ideas to schools with fewer resources. Of the 84 students in his class, about three-quarters go back to a school site.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">&#8220;You&#8217;re guaranteeing yourself a life of poverty if you drop out of high school,&#8221; Held said. &#8220;I thought our guys could take what they&#8217;re learning in economics and teach lessons to schools. They have enthusiasm and the connection with kids. They are reinforcing economic ideas they learn in class.&#8221;<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">Ukropina, a straight-A student headed to Stanford to become a punter and entrepreneur, lives not far from Hillsides but didn&#8217;t know it existed until he volunteered as part of a community service project. He returned last month to offer an economic lesson in &#8220;opportunity cost.&#8221;<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">The kids were excited to see him. There were high-fives and smiles.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">Most important, there was real interaction between Ukropina, his fellow teenage teachers and the students. They seemed to listen and understand the lesson.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">&#8220;If there&#8217;s one thing to take away from today&#8217;s lesson in opportunity cost, it&#8217;s there&#8217;s no such thing as a free lunch, meaning every single cost has an alternative, and with each choice you make, you want to make the best decision possible for you, because by taking one choice, choice A, you&#8217;re missing out on choice B,&#8221; Ukropina said.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">The players brought props, footballs and toys and made the lesson fun. I had to wonder why economics couldn&#8217;t be this interesting when I went to high school.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">&#8220;This experience has been incredible,&#8221; Ukropina said. &#8220;It makes you appreciate teachers and everything they do connecting with the kids.&#8221;<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">Lots of schools have imposed community service requirements for graduation. But the key is actually getting the students to learn from their experience, taking them out of their comfort zone and giving them an opportunity to see how to make a difference.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">Some of these athletes weren&#8217;t comfortable standing in front of a class of junior high students they didn&#8217;t know and teaching a lesson. But once they saw how the students were listening and wanting to learn, their instincts and leadership skills took over.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">&#8220;Whenever you can help somebody out, it&#8217;s a great thing to do,&#8221; said McOsker, who&#8217;s headed to Notre Dame.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">Ukropina seemed a natural in getting the kids to react and listen. He looked into their eyes, gave them positive reinforcement and was genuine in his commitment to help.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">He spent three weeks at Hillsides during his first visit.<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">&#8220;Some of the kids started crying on my last day,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It was touching. It&#8217;s something I&#8217;ve never experienced. It was eye-opening to see.&#8221;<\/span><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><br style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;\">Even athletes who perform under pressure in front of hundreds of people can learn something new by being thrust into an environment they&#8217;ve never encountered.
