Offering incentives for incorporating service-learning

Millikin University - IL, Illinois
President: Thomas F. Flynn

Though funds are modest, Millikin offers incentive grants for incorporating service-learning into electives (it is required in a first year University Seminar and we have required Senior Capstones with “”community contribution”" components). We also have summer service learning fellowships, for both faculty and students, that are more community service–they don’t have to be tied to coursework, or developing a course.

I know of no other educational organization that has a track record like Campus Compact's. It is a phenomenal success, not just in terms of growth in numbers, but in terms of the impact it's had on communities, on campuses, and on individual lives."
