Service-Learning Coordinator for The Career and Community Learning Center (CCLC), University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN

The Career and Community Learning Center of the University of Minnesota coordinates career services, internships, community involvement and service-learning; monitors and advises students about independent study
options; and administers a variety of domestic, off-campus study
programs. CCLC has a project-oriented and team management
approach to accomplishing its work. Key responsibilities of the Service-Learning Coordinator for the center are the: assistance for faculty and staff incorporating service-learning opportunities into new and existing courses;
the coordination of evaluation efforts for service-learning courses; the assistance in the development and maintenance of successful collaborations between local community and governmental organizations and CCLC to support the expansion of service-learning courses while meeting community needs; working closely with other service-learning staff, including the Coordinator of Service-Learning and Community Involvement, the Student Programs Coordinators, AmeriCorps*VISTA member, and several part-time student staff member; the collaboration with other CCLC coordinators in providing overall CCLC programming.

Much of my work in service-learning and community engagement has come as a result of the many excellent resources and materials generated by Campus Compact. When I first became the Founding Director of CSUSB's CUP [Community-University Partnership Institute], I relied almost exclusively on the resources of Campus Compact in designing, planning, and implementing our actions."
