The Department of Civic Engagement is accepting proposals for the 2010 ? 2011 Service-Learning Faculty Fellows Program now until Monday, May 3, 2010. This faculty cohort provides support for TU faculty interested in creating a new service-learning course or incorporating a significant service-learning component into an existing course.
Interested faculty members are invited to propose a service-learning initiative that includes a case for the significance and expected impact of the project in a broader context of civic engagement and social responsibility. Applications will be evaluated on how the service-learning project seeks to advance course objectives, include meaningful student interaction with the community and address real community needs.
Selected Faculty Fellows are awarded a $1,000 stipend and meet on a monthly basis to develop and then implement service-learning courses. Applications for the 2010- 2011 Faculty Fellows cohort are now available, please visit the website for more information: {http://www.towson.edu/studentaffairs/civicengagement/ServiceLearningFacultyFellows.asp}
