Most agree service learning is good for students and the community; unfortunately, that doesn't always lead to faculty participation. At Onondaga Community College, a group of faculty initiated a plan to increase faculty and community partner engagement. They applied for OCC's President's Incentive Grant to pilot a Service Learning Faculty Fellowship Program that is now in its third year. Experienced committee members and faculty will share "the good, the bad, and the won't do that again" learned through this process to help other colleges support faculty as they begin their journey of designing, implementing, and administering rewarding service learning projects for their courses.
