I am very pleased to announce a new addition to the COMM-ORG Papers Collection:

Undergraduates and Community-Based Research: Benefits, Challenges and Opportunities

by Katharine Kravetz,

Increasingly, community-based social change efforts are partnering with institutions of higher education, and are often using undergraduates. Katharine takes an honest look at such efforts. This is an important paper for anyone who wants to have realistic expectations for such partnerships.

You can find the paper at the COMM-ORG “Papers” page, in the 2004 section:

I hope that the paper inspires some discussion. Authors contribute papers to COMM-ORG in the hopes of getting comments, so please feel welcomed to contact David and Nan directly or discuss their paper through the list.

Thanks to Katharine for contributing her paper.
