Recently, I connected graduate students from BU’s School of Education (SED) to Kate Rafey, MACC AmeriCorps*VISTA at
Today I sat in on the class and listened to the hour-long class presentation. The students presented theories and research related to service learning. They touched on concepts by Eyler and Giles, which is a coincidence because Giles actually led a service-learning workshop at Campus Compact’s pre-service orientation back in July.
Kate spoke about her personal experience as Coordinator of Stonehill’s Office of Community-Based Learning (CBL). Not only did she illustrate the college’s commitment to social justice, she also explained how her work relates to MACC, AmeriCorps, and CNCS (Corporation for National and Community Service).
