Library Resources for information on Service Learning and Civic Engagement
There are now Research Guides for use by faculty interested in information related to Service Learning and Civic Engagement. The guides allow for easy searching for articles and books on these topics. Included in the Books and More tab are two search boxes; one for Reference Universe and the other for the Library’s catalog. The Articles tab allows you to search for a specific journal title to find out if we have access in print or a database. Need to find a journal you can submit your article to? You can search using the Ulrichsweb box to find the titles of journals publishing in your area. You can also locate databases in your area either alphabetically or by subject. You can find these Research Guides by following these steps.
Go to the library’s homepage library.shsu.edu
Click on the Research Guides tab
Click on the box for Search within Research Guides and type in civic engagement or service learning
Click on the guide and take a look.

The Reba Bock Endowment Scholarship
The Center for Academic Community Engagement asked for students to step up and apply for the Reba Bock Endowment Scholarship and we're glad to say we have many great applications. We wish to thank all applicants who submitted applications and encourage you to keep a look out for more events to follow in the future. Thank you!
The Reba Bock Endowment Scholarship will provide an opportunity for Sam Houston University students, with a passion for community engagement and leadership, to make a significant contribution to the local community.
The Reba Bock Endowment Scholarship winner will work in tandem with The Center for Academic Community Engagement in turning skills and knowledge learned into action for the good of communities. Those selected for this honor will be required to present the results of their community activism in several venues, including classroom presentations and a conference presentation.
In addition, the Reba Bock Endowment Scholarship will submit their work to The Center for Academic Community Engagement for publication (if applicable). With each presentation/publication will come an acknowledgement of the Reba Bock Endowment and her life commitment to community service. Her story and the Reba Bock Endowment Scholarship will leave a legacy that will inspire others to live the SHSU motto, “The measure of a life is its service.”
Thank you!
We hosted an exhibition of various ACE course project photos in the LSC Art Gallery in mid-February. We wish to thank all applicants who submitted photos to be displayed and encourage you to keep a look out for more events to follow in the future. Thank you!
