HON 300 Learning by Giving

Membership in honors program required. This course provides the opportunity for students to engage with a local nonprofit as a grant writer, while learning the conceptual material that supports this endeavor. Faculty from SSW and SOM in partnership with the Scott/Ross Center will facilitate integration of theory and practice through writing a grant proposal. Teams of students will join with, learn from, and ultimately serve as grant writers for local nonprofit community partners culminating in a competitive decision making process for awarding multiple grants totaling $10,000. Conceptual material regarding philanthropy, community engagement, leadership, team development, and the importance of supporting organizations that empower girls and/or women will serve as a guide for student learning, analysis and decision-making.
