Our Faculty Fellows for Community-Engaged Learning program is a mix of facilitated discussions, panel presentations, readings from the field of community engagement, and review of sample syllabi and SL assignments. The schedule consists of one day-long retreat in January, one lunch session each in February, March and April, and a concluding day in May. Throughout, faculty will have opportunities to plan and workshop their own community-engaged course ideas with peers and mentors. Faculty from all units — and at all ranks — are encouraged to apply, including Lecturers; preference is given to applicants who have a specific course in mind for development as community-engaged learning.
