The Fall 2020 UNO Service Learning Academy Newsletter theme is "Leading and Learning Virtually."

"The theme for this newsletter is a perfect way to describe how our students, faculty members, and community partners managed the semester. (And that is the first time I used the word ‘perfect’ to describe anything in 2020!) Folks experienced nearly insurmountable challenges only to meet them with leadership, collaboration, and creativity."

Julie Dierberger, Paul Sather Distinguished Director, UNO Service Learning Academy
