Service-Leaning projects and specific majors

Hello everyone,

Matthew's project motivated me to inquire if anyone had personally compiled
or knew of web sites with a list of service-learning projects/ideas that
complemented academic disciplines especially in the following areas: Arts
and Sciences, Business Administration, Education, Engineering and Applied
Science, and Fine Arts. I know there are web sites with sample syllabi, but
are their sites with project ideas connected directly to majors? It would
be wonderful if we could provide a resource to faculty members and students
that included some creative project ideas or successful initiatives that
directly linked the out-of-classroom experience with specific majors. This
request is not intended to minimize in anyway the value of service-learning
experiences that do not have an obvious or immediate correlation with the
area of study. I think this resource would encourage some of our bystanders
to become active participants in this progressive learning experience. We
hope this request stimulates some interest and reactions.  Thank you.

Have a wonderful holiday.

Elizabeth O'Reggio
