RE: SL Article: Business Communication Quarterly Quarterly)

All,

In response to Ann Treacy's posting today about the article on service 
learning in "Business Communication Quarterly," I thought you might want to 
know that the article, "Doing Good While Doing Well: Service Learning 
Internships," written by Louise Rehling at San Francisco State University, 
is posted to the website of the University's Office of Community Service 
Learning at:  http://thecity.sfsu.edu/~ocsl/news.html   in PDF format.

The following article will be of particular interest to Business, 
Communication, and Writing faculty and anyone working with an internship 
program. 
Doing Good While Doing Well: Service Learning Internships. Louise Rehling.
"Business Communication Quarterly" March 2000 v63 i1 p77+ 
The author talks about the advantages focussing Business Communication 
internships on service-learning projects rather than sending them into the 
corporate world. Students placed in service organizations generally get to 
experience a wider range of writing assignments and more pronounced office 
political situation. It is also an opportunity for students to make a 
significant difference to an organization, and a chance to build 
community-campus partnerships.
