Brief Biography:
My work as Director of the IUPUI Center for Service and Learning since 1994 has resulted in an expansion of the number of service learning courses, a curriculum for faculty development, a Community Service Scholars program, an America Reads tutoring program, and contributions to a HUD Community Outreach Partnership Center. The IUPUI service learning program was ranked 8th best in the nation among all colleges and universities in 2002 and received a Presidential Award in 2006 as part of the first President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll. My scholarly interests for service learning, community service, and civic engagement include student and faculty attitudes and motives, educational outcomes, institutionalization, and assessment and measurement issues. I have published With Service in Mind: Concepts and Models for Service-Learning in Psychology (edited with D. Duffy), Colleges and Universities as Citizens (edited with R. Games & E. Malloy), The Measure of Service Learning: Research Scales to Assess Student Experiences (with M. Phillips and M. Hudson).
