Welcome to Service Learning!
Service Learning Application due February 10th, 2012
If you have been referred to this website, it means you are enrolled in a CSU, Chico course which includes a community based experience. This is an exciting opportunity to get hands-on experience with the theories discussed in class, while also helping a local non-profit or school. You will learn more about the specifics of the course requirements the first week of class at the in-class orientation.
NEW Service Learning Students
If this is the first time you've enrolled in a service learning class, open the link below to download and print the CAVE Service Learning Clearance Application Packet and Instructions. Please read the instructions carefully, as there are three additional documents to attach to the packet.
RETURNING Service Learning Students
A student is considered a returning service learning student if they previously completed a CAVE service learning packet for another course, which would have on file a letter of recommendation, a TB test, a copy of their student ID and a clearance form signed by the CAVE Service Learning Program Manager, Carla Shields. Each semester a returning service learning student plans to participate in a service learning class he/she will still need to complete the following: Student contact and introduction form, a personal and professional fitness form, and a risk and assumption form. CAVE keeps files on service learning students in the office for four years. This process should see service learning students through their initial clearance to graduation. It is our goal at CAVE to streamline the process while continuing to support the Associated Students, CSU, Chico, and Community Partners' risk management requirements. Please open the link below to download and print the CAVE Returning Service Learning Clearance Application Packet and Instructions.
