SL Committee

Overview

Vision:
The USF Service-Learning Committee promotes the infusion of the service-learning ethic into all levels of the university so that students are inspired to fashion a more just and humane world.

Mission:
The USF Service-Learning Committee fosters the development of high quality service-learning opportunities for USF students and faculty by:
Promoting the integration of service-learning into the curriculum.
Supporting faculty service-learning initiatives that meet real community needs, especially the needs of the most vulnerable members in our neighborhoods.
Providing high quality opportunities for critical reflection on service experiences.

Background:
The first iteration of the Service-Learning Committee was as a task force, created in the fall of 1998. One product of the task forces efforts was to propose the creation of a formal, standing university-wide committee appointed by, and reporting to, Provost/Academic Vice President and Vice President for Student Affairs. The proposal was approved, creating the Service Learning Committee in the fall of 1999.
