Atlanta Service-Learning Conference Report.
Atlanta Service-Learning Conference, GA.
Persons concerned with both higher education and community service came together in mid-1969 to discuss the pros and cons of service-learning programs and to determine the need for such programs. The participants at the conference recommended: (1) that colleges and universities encourage student community service, assist in assuring disciplined learning as part of this service, and award academic recognition for the learning acquired by students in service projects; (2) that federal, regional, and state and local governments, colleges and universities, and private organizations provide opportunities and supply the funds required for as many students as are needed and are willing to engage in service activities; and (3) that students, public and private agency officials, college faculty and staff, cooperate in the administration of programs in which students both serve and learn.
