Selkregg Community Engagement & Service Learning Award 2013; proposals due by March 1

Faculty proposals are now being accepted for the 2013 Selkregg Community Engagement and Service Learning Award. Proposal deadline is Friday, March 1, by noon.

The Selkregg Community Engagement & Service Learning Award of $5,000 supports faculty to develop community-based research, creative activity and course-based service learning projects. The award seeks to encourage, inspire and reward faculty at UAA for engaged scholarship that creates and sustains our community partnerships. Purposes of the award are to recognize community engagement projects with significant discipline-based scholarship, community partnership and student leadership development. The proposed projects should ultimately aim to improve the quality of life for Alaska residents and develop civic leadership, democracy and social justice on campus and in the community.

Full award details and application are available on the Center for Community Engagement and Learning website.
