"By being out
in the field
and being part of a classroom community, I can better understand the
issues
discussed in our reading. I am able to see how these issues are
played
out in the environment, and I have learned so much more from
experiential
learning than I could have from a textbook. [CLP students] are able to
develop altruism and be concerned with social change; they are able to
get the best of both worlds in community-service learning"
