This is a university community-learning course in which students learn about local conditions and concerns/ideals directly from residents while providing professional services to neighborhood organizations seeking to improve their communities. Students will be encouraged to develop designs that address environmental conditions, incorporate community history, satisfy residents’ needs and concerns, and offer new opportunities for future generations. To encourage student reflection on professional and personal learning, class time and assignments will incorporate discussion, writing in sketchbook/journals, and other forms of dialogue.
