Nominations sought for Student Service-Learning Award

Each year, the Service-Learning Academy recognizes one UNO student who has gone above and beyond the required community engagement in the context of a service-learning class. This year, this recognition will come with an honorarium of $250. To be nominated, a student must have demonstrated and upheld in an outstanding way, the key principles of effective academic service-learning:

• Establishing and maintaining a reciprocal relationship with a community partner
• Providing a useful and meaningful community service, and
• Mastering the course’s academic objective(s), as related to the service performed.

The award will be presented at the Student Honors Convocation, Friday, April 13 at 3:00 p.m. in the Strauss Performing Arts Center.

Nominations must be in to the Service-Learning Academy no later than January 26, 2007. Click here to download a nomination for or for more information, contact Carlynn Hartman-Kurtz at 554-2712 or chartmankurtz@mail.unomaha.edu.
