Service-Learning
We are committed to preparing students for democratic citizenship, strengthening our partnerships for change, and ensuring that our teaching, research, and institutional actions contribute to the public good. Engaging with the community is the means by which we express our scholarly, academic, and professional genes through mutually-beneficial community-campus partnerships.

enhanced sense of personal values and civic responsibility."
