This publication highlights the work of institutions of higher education and their surrounding communities throughout the United States. These institutions are responding to the responsibilities and possibilities of their educational and social missions by mobilizing their resources in ways that benefit the institutions and the communities, creating partnerships that take advantage of their collective resources. In this listing of schools and programs, institutions are grouped according to the following categories: service learning; service provision; faculty involvement; student volunteerism; community in the classroom; applied research; and major institutional change. For each listing, the name of the institution, the program, and the president are presented, followed by a brief description of the program. An index of contact information is included. (SM)
