Description
When we speak of service-learning as building a bridge between the campus and the community, we invoke the image of two lands separated by a stream or river. The campus is here, the community there, and the bridge permits traffic between them. Of course the campus and the community are seldom really so separate. Especially at metropolitan universities like the one where I teach, many students have grown up, live, work, and raise their own children in the very neighborhoods we hope to serve. One of my students remembers going to daycare at the community center where we've formed our service-learning partnership; another works for the center's principal corporate donor; the agency director is a graduate of our University whose last faculty partner was once her teacher.
