TwoFold Retreat – June 2008
On June 4, 45 faculty, community and service learning directors and MCC staff gathered at Schoolcraft College to discuss how we engage more faculty in service learning and how we strategically move our departments forward within the institution and the community. Thank you to Dr. Faye Schuett who hosted us from Schoolcraft College and to all of our presenters.
Faculty Workshop
The faculty who attended spent the day with JoAnn Campbell, Associate Director of Minnesota Campus Compact analyzing and discussing faculty engagement models.
