CSL Events

Welcome to the Center for Service Learning, a thriving center for community development and service where we take pleasure in developing important relationships and arranging memorable events. At the Center, we've been busy fostering connections and opportunities. Our recent Community Partner Breakfast brought UTA Faculty and Staff together to celebrate service-learning and partnerships with nonprofits. In August, the Service Learning & MAFE Faculty Social was a fun networking event. These gatherings are open to all UTA Faculty and Staff, emphasizing inclusivity. We look forward to continuing to build community through service.
