The SLA offers unique interdisciplinary and interprofessional service-learning opportunities for undergraduate and graduate level students enrolled on the UNMC campuses.
Shireen,
I would love to be there, but have 4-year-old Isaac that day. Don't think he would appreciate the topic. Keep up the community discourse on the topic.
