Description

Ten years ago, members of the Shriver Living Learning Community planned and implemented an event that has since traveled to different universities throughout the Maryland-DC region (and returned to UMBC in 2013). Check out the attached memorabilia. The 11th Annual Service-Learning & Civic Engagement Conference (SLCE) draws together students, faculty, staff, and community partners from the Campus Compact Mid-Atlantic network and beyond for a series of workshops and transformative discussions around civic and community engagement. 

This year, the event will take place at the University of Maryland, Eastern Shore on Saturday, April 7th, "Get Engaged, Be the Change." The event begins at 10am and concludes at 4:30 pm. UMES is just under 3 hours from UMBC. If you are interested in coordinating transportation to the event, please contact Alexis Logan-Brown at Alexislb@umbc.edu. There will be a bus that stops at UMBC to transport folks, but seats are limited (coordinated by Towson University colleagues). 

To learn more about the history of SLCE involving UMBC and SLLC, see the immediate link below. 

Because UMBC is a member of the Campus Compact Mid-Atlantic network (formerly Maryland-DC Campus Compact), student tickets are only $10; faculty/staff are only $25. Community partner tickets are $25. Visit the second link to purchase tickets.
