If you are interested in deepening self awareness through community engagement, consider signing up for SOCY 396 Reflections on Service-Learning and Community Engagement: A Sociological Perspective! This 3 credit Pass/Fail course has no exams or quizzes. Cumulative learning is demonstrated through creative expression. Please note that enrollment in the 0 credit PRAC 096 is a co-requisite of SOCY 396. In short, students participate in a semester of regular volunteer service at a community organization of their choosing (from a list of organizations found here) and further develop their understanding of service-learning and community engagement in SOCY 396.
Because this course falls under the category of "Independent Study" it is still possible to enroll, but be sure to act quickly because the course begins on Wednesday, February 28th. Class meets every Wednesday from 11-11:50am. Please review the attached flyer. Questions may be directed to Lori Hardesty, Adjunct Faculty, Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Public Health and Shriver Center Staff, LHardesty@umbc.edu.
Additionally, if you're considering volunteer service for the spring, there is still about a week left to sign up for PRAC 096.
