Ginsberg Center's Michigan Journal of Community Service Learning (MJCSL) and Campus Compact are partnering to host a virtual discussion with the authors published in the journal's past two issues (30.2 and 31.1). Participants will engage with authors directly to gain more insight into the findings of each article and the methods and processes behind the findings. Come learn from the authors and bring your questions!
