Service-Learning Partnership Orientations

The Service-Learning Program begins each semester with an S-L Partnership Orientation breakfast or lunch, bringing together community partners, faculty, and S-LTAs to prepare for the new semester and partnerships, share best practices among colleagues and courses, and solidify partnership expectations and goals before students begin their coursework and service in the upcoming weeks. 

Fall 2009 S-L Partnership Orientation - September 3, 2009
Spring 2010 S-L Partnership Orientation - date TBD

Past Networking for Service-Learning Breakfasts

Our first Networking for Service-Learning Breakfast held in September 2005 brought together representatives from community-based organizations and NU faculty/staff members to discuss possible and ongoing S-L partnerships with NU.  Through this gathering, many exciting connections were developed and came to fruition in the upcoming semesters. The Breakfasts continued at the beginning of each semester through the spring of 2008. As the Service-Learning Program continues to grow, we recognize the greater need for events that focus on providing more guidance and support for the partnerships within a given semester, which is why we have since replaced the Breakfasts with our new Partnership Orientations.
