Does Service Learning Really Help? Article

Please read this awesome article reguarding what we do @ the Urban Center! Its very informative and interesting!


This article talks about service learning and how college students can become activists and help our world. Stephanie Strom talks about how Obama strongly emphasizes volunteering and engaging in your community for higher education. Its also suggests that "matchmaking" or having individuals in between non-profits and universities help this function better. Here at the Center for Urban Connections, that is what we do and we want to to come in or ask any questions you have about volunteering! It is self-empowering. We are in Tivoli 243, so please stop by!
