Twelve civic-education projects move forward with CCLA funding
This spring, the Center for Civic Learning & Action (CCLA) is supporting 12 emerging and expanding faculty- and staff-led projects that empower students to work toward the common good in a variety of ways.
The projects are funded through the college’s Civic Engagement Fund, supported by a generous Andrew W. Mellon Foundation grant, and they span the spectrum of subjects in the humanities, sciences and arts. Each provides a framework for students to apply what they’re learning in class to problems and projects in the local community.
