WHAT IS SERVICE LEARNING?

Service-learning is a credit-bearing, educational experience in which students: 1) participate in an organized service activity that meets identified

on- and off-campus community needs and 2) reflect on the service activity in such a way as to gain further understanding of course content, a broader appreciation of the discipline, and an

enhanced sense of civic responsibility (Committee Minutes, January 25, 2001).

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SERVICE LEARNING?

When participating in Service Learning, you are able to give back to your community. It is

always a very rewarding experience, and it is wonderful

knowing that you are doing your part to help others.

WHAT DID I GET OUT OF MY SERVICE LEARNING?

After completing my service learning, I feel like I have a better understanding of what it means to help other people. I realize how well off I am, and I want to

do more in the future to give back to my community.
