“Service-Learning
for Social Justice” in Northern Ireland
Gustavus Adolphus College
A group of 16 faculty and administrators from Gustavus
Adolphus College attended a week-long seminar entitled
“Service Learning for Social Justice” at
HECUA’s site in Northern Ireland (UNESCO Center).
HECUA program directors Bill Reichard (City Arts),
Lorraine Heffernan (Northern Ireland), and internship
coordinator Martha Malinski worked closely with Gustavus
faculty in a retreat-like setting exploring issues
in Northern Ireland, developing service-learning courses
for January 2003. Participants also focused on creating
a seminar which would provide faculty with the opportunity
to experience and reflect on how they can connect
their students and courses to social justice themes,
and use service-learning as a tool for social justice.
