Required freshman “”University Seminar”" with service-learning project

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

Millikin University in Decatur, Illinois, requires 15 hours of service-learning as part of a required freshman “”University Seminar.”" It is then likely, but not required, that students will encounter service-learning as part of a required senior interdisciplinary capstone with a “”contribution component”" (either on or off-campus) or in upper-level electives that incorporate service-learning, which are slowly but steadily increasing in numbers.

We value Montana Campus Compact for creating an awareness and dialogue in the state among higher education institutions, community partners, our higher education commissioner's office, and various other entities about the importance of community involvement for college and university students. The AmeriCorps and VISTA programs are also very valuable resources."
