Future Students: Embrace Service Learning

HyoungSu Lee took English 2100 in the summer of 2018. He initially did not see the value of service learning but completing a project for the class changed his view. His service learning project involved creating a handout to promote the Thayne Center, which connects students to community service opportunities. Through the project, he learned about the many programs offered by the Thayne Center to get students involved in their community. He now sees service learning as a way for students to gain internship-like experiences helping their community while also potentially earning financial aid. He encourages other students to take advantage of the opportunities available through the Thayne Center.

Reflection

HyoungSu Lee

For future students,

Hello,

I am HyoungSu Lee. I took English 2100 during the summer of 2018. It was a very tough

semester since it is a summer one. There are tasks to do with the service learning project

besides homework. Service learning is one of the heaviest parts of this class. When I heard first

time about service learning, I did not have any idea about it. I am just not a person who is into

the community service. I have never really thought about helping others in the community

while I am attending school. I know I should have some sort of volunteer service time for

my resume, but that is about it. That is what most students do their volunteer work. I know it is

sad to hear it. However, it was true for me, and I have heard from many friends they are doing

volunteers for the resumes.

I have changed my mind doing service learning in English 2100. I thought there are not

many ways to work with community while I am in school. But, there are so many programs that

school connects students to the community service in many fields. So, students can face the

real-case scenarios while working for community. Isn’t that fascinating? It is like we are doing

internships to help our community for public interests. It is killing two birds with one stone!

There are also some financial aid school can provide through service learning. There are some

chances to earn your tuition while service learning. Students do not know this wonderful fact.
My service learning project is making a handout introducing the Thayne Center; the place

makes a connection between students and public service providers.

It was my pleasure to make promotional material for the Thayne Center. Even if they are

not using my work. At least, I have found some great information about it throughout the

process of making it. So, I can inform anyone I want to. There are many great chances students

can get from the Thayne Center. You should visit it! It is in the basement of the student center

at Redwood campus. I hope you enjoy service learning.

Best regards,

HyoungSu Lee
