The
Service Learning Program at Marygrove is curricular and co-curricular
in nature and provides an opportunity for students to crystallize their
learning experiences while living out the college’s mission and
commitment to social justice. Curricular service learning involves students
in some form of required community service and uses that service as a
means of understanding course concepts and personal intervention when
addressing social issues. The curricular service learning program requires
students to complete a maximum of 15 hours of service at a pre-selected
community agency site while fulfilling the objectives of that course.
Co-curricular service learning is any service experience in which students
have intentional learning goals and actively reflect on what the are learning
throughout the experience. Annual co-curricular projects include: Make
A Difference Day, Martin L. King, Jr. Community Service Day, Alternative
Spring Break, and Clean Sweep.
