Proposals for service-learning courses sought

The Honors College is requesting proposals for service-learning courses to be taught in the fall 2010 semester or later.

An application can be found on the Honors College service-learning Web site: http://schc.sc.edu/Initiatives/ServiceLearning.php

Funding is available for course support grants and community collaboration grants. Course support grants are intended to help cover organizational expenses associated with the implementation of service-learning or community-based research associated with a course.

Community Collaboration grants are for faculty, students, and community partners interested in working together to create and implement a service-learning course.

Eligibility for participation requires that each Community Collaboration Grant team includes a faculty member, student, and community partner. The deadline for proposals is Nov. 2.

A question-and-answer proposal workshops will be held: October 5  and Oct. 13 from 12:15 to 1:15 in Harper College, Room 220. To attend the workshop, contact Molly K. Gilbride at molly@schc.sc.edu or 7-8005.
