Programs with "4th Credit" Option

Hello, Service-Learning Network members.

I am looking for information about schools where service-learning is an 
optional credit attached to specific courses.  Our program allows students 
to choose service-learning as one of two balanced project tracks within 
each course in which it is offered.  The faculty members teaching these 
classes participate in a workshop and design a clear series of assignments. 
 Because of some of the challenges involved, however, I am exploring the 
idea of developing a one-credit option for students in these classes, but I 
know of only a few schools who have this type of program.  

If you do have any information, I would appreciate a few notes, names, or 
URLs.  Please reply to ljolsonh@nic.edu

Thank you,
