Spring 2012 'Second Bridge' award applications due Nov. 28

The Center for Community Engagement and Learning (CCEL) is accepting proposals for community-engaged project awards. Application deadline for the Second Bridge Scholarship Award is Nov. 28. Visit the CCEL website for more information and to download applications.

Second Bridge Scholarship Award
This award of up to $2,000 encourages UAA undergraduates enrolled in any degree-seeking program to pursue a structured but non-traditional educational experience in service-learning. Students who engaged in a study-abroad program or a domestic community-engaged program crossed a "first bridge" that expanded their educational horizons. Crossing the "second bridge" requires a commitment to either an international setting or a domestic setting that will push the boundaries of traditional education, meet a community need and afford a richer and deeper experience for the student.
