Posted by on April 29, 2005

Call for Proposals. ?From Here to There: Service, Learning, and the Research Connection.? The Midwest Consortium for Service-Learning in Higher Education seeks proposals for its September 2005 conference at the University of South Dakota. Details can be found at http://www.usd.edu/midwestconsortium. Topics to be explored at this conference include faculty dissemination of research or courses that include service-learning, as well as service-learning involving poverty, immigrant, and refugee issues. Proposals are due June 1. The Midwest Consortium for Service-Learning in Higher Education (MCSLHE) promotes, mobilizes, and supports the efforts of Nebraska and South Dakota higher education institutions that are united in strengthening their academic and co-curricular programs through service-learning in their institutions, communities, state and nation. Our primary aims are: (1) to increase the level of commitment, partnerships, support, and communication from member institutions; (2) to expand and diversify the base of faculty involved in service-learning, providing students with quality service-learning, emphasizing civic engagement; (3) to expand and improve relationships with community partners; and (4) to contribute to the field of service-learning through research and evaluations. The Consortium is supported by a Learn & Serve grant. Proposals are welcome from everyone.
