To set up a time to meet with Service-Learning Staff, please contact The Shriver Center at (410) 455-2493.  You can also stop by to set an appointment (first floor of the Public Policy Building, just past the elevators).  The deadline for all applied learning experiences is next week (March 1st), but the sooner we can meet and process your registration, the better.
