Kathy Coll, Lecturer (Feminist Studies):
“In Feminist Studies, we emphasize preparation, analysis and reflection as key aspects of the "practicum" (service learning) requirement for our majors. The Haas Center staff truly understands our commitment to feminist praxis in community-based learning. They are a critical resource for our students in the challenging process of identifying community partners and fellowship opportunities.”
Michael Kahan, Lecturer (Urban Studies):
“When the Urban Studies program implemented its new internship requirement, the Haas Center provided us with outstanding support. Their staff connected us to funding, expert advice, and crucial links to resources on campus and in the community. We could not have done it without their help.”
