Fall 2022 service-learning fellowships awarded for Purdue-community partnerships
Purdue’s Office of Engagement has selected seven Purdue instructors for their fall 2022 Service-Learning Fellows Program. This program fosters the development and institutionalization of service-learning courses and curricula, projects and scholarly pursuits at Purdue as well as strengthens collaborative efforts and outcomes in communities.
Throughout the fall semester, the fellows will work with service-learning staff and community partners to explore the nature of service-learning courses and partnerships at Purdue amid the ever-changing reality of the COVID-19 pandemic and systemic racial injustice. Together, participants will collaboratively develop the skills and tools needed to deliver effective, mutually beneficial service-learning courses. Each partnership receives up to $2,000 to fund their project.

- Anne Gritt, clinical assistant professor, Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences, Purdue West Lafayette.
