    • The VSLC will NOT place service-learners at community partner sites on or after the dates below.
      • Fall semester - November 8, 2011
      • Spring semester - April 4, 2012

    The VSLC encourages students to begin service-learning hours early in the semester, prior to fall or spring breaks. Students who begin hours late have fewer learning opportunities, and can cause unnecessary hardship for our community partners and the people and animals they serve. Students who do not begin service-learning hours prior to the cut off dates will have limited options for community partnerships and may be unable to complete their hours.
