Service-Learning Opportunities for Faculty

The Office of Civic Engagement is pleased to offer the following service-learning opportunities for faculty in the Spring semester.

1. Service-Learning Faculty Fellows Program
Proposals for 2011-2012 now being accepted!

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. Selected Faculty Fellows are awarded a $1,000 stipend and meet on a monthly basis to develop and then implement service-learning courses. Proposals for the 2011- 2012 Faculty Fellows cohort are being accepted now through Friday, April 22. Selected faculty will be notified by Spring commencement. For proposal guidelines, please visit {http://www.towson.edu/studentaffairs/civicengagement/FacultyFellowsGuidelines.asp}.
