Service Learning is a type of experiential learning that engages students in service to the College and to the world as an integral part of their academic coursework.
In partnership with community organizations, students participate in and reflect upon course-relevant activities to gain:
- Enhanced understanding of course content
- Greater consciousness of their place in larger social systems
- Increased sense of their moral responsibility to the community, consistent with the principles of Catholic Social Teaching and the specific example of Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini
| Cabrini's core currcilum, Justice Matters, develops a common core of knowledge and career skills, while also linking theory to practice in the world. The Wolfington Center is in charge of the service learning component of Cabrini's unique educational experience.
