[[Boise State University|Boise State University's]] service-learning page states "We consult with faculty, students, and community organizations to connect classroom learning with hands-on community engagement. Service-learning enhances student learning, addresses critical community issues, and builds students’ capacities to be change makers in their local, national and global communities."<ref>{{Cite web |title=Learn.org - |url=https://learn.org/articles/DegreeDirectoryorg_Talks_to_Beth_Ultis_of_Boise_State_Universitys_Service-Learning_Program.html |access-date=2023-03-28 |website=learn.org}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Brand |first=Brittany |last2=Sass |first2=Margaret |last3=Brascia |first3=Kara |date=2011-12-08 |title=Active learning through community outreach: A case study of service-learning in a natural hazard, vulnerability and risk class |url=https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/hlrc/vol9/iss2/1 |journal=Higher Learning Research Communications |volume=9 |issue=2 |doi=10.18870/hlrc.v9i2.438 |issn=2157-6254}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Cyr |first=Don |last2=Kemp |first2=Gillian |date=July 2018 |title=BUSINESS SCHOOL SERVICE-LEARNING: AN EMPIRICAL EXAMINATION OF COMMUNITY PARTNERS’ PERCEPTION OF BENEFITS |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.21125/edulearn.2018.0778 |journal=EDULEARN Proceedings |publisher=IATED |doi=10.21125/edulearn.2018.0778}}</ref>

[[Georgetown University|Georgetown University's]] website says "The Center for Social Justice (CSJ) is responsible for designating courses as “community-based learning” courses. Crucially, a community-based learning (CBL) course involves work with disadvantaged and underserved individuals and groups. Such work has traditionally been called “service-learning.” The language of CBL attempts to capture Georgetown’s central commitment to working with community representatives in designing CBL courses, courses that value the contributions of both campus and community to the learning experience of the students.
 
The community-based learning model at Georgetown entails that each enrolled student complete at least 20 to 40 hours of structured community-based work, along with designated course assignments requiring active integration by students of their community-based work and central course themes and materials through course assignments, such as papers, reports, oral presentations, or exams. Through this model, individual students might be working with different CBOs; small groups of students might be working with a few CBOs; or all students in the class might be working together on one large project for one partner CBO. Courses under this model are offered at both 3 and 4 credits"."<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Jacoby |first=Barbara |date=1999 |title=Partnerships for Service Learning |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/ss.8702 |journal=New Directions for Student Services |volume=1999 |issue=87 |pages=19–35 |doi=10.1002/ss.8702 |issn=0164-7970}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Marullo |first=Sam |last2=Moayedi |first2=Roxanna |last3=Cooke |first3=Deanna |date=January 2009 |title=C.

=== Northeastern University ===
[[Northeastern University|Northeastern University's]] website says "Service-learning in CSSH has come in the form of teaching urban youth how to cook healthy and affordable meals, building a website to document humanitarian projects in post-earthquake Haiti, and allocating real-dollar grants to local nonprofits that address social and economic challenges. Many of the Dialogue of Civilizations faculty-led summer programs also integrate service-learning into their curricula.
 
CSSH students also have valuable opportunities to broaden their knowledge, skills, and social awareness by volunteering in the community outside of their academic curriculum. The Northeastern Center of Community Service serves as a clearinghouse for service opportunities through its own programs and events, and partnerships with more than 225 community-based agencies and programs"."<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Miller |first=Julie |last2=Berkey |first2=Becca |last3=Griffin |first3=Francis |date=2015-10-01 |title=International Students in American Pathway Programs: Learning English and Culture through Service-Learning |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.32674/jis.v5i4.399 |journal=Journal of International Students |volume=5 |issue=4 |pages=334–352 |doi=10.32674/jis.v5i4.399 |issn=2166-3750}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Furco |first=Andrew |date=1996-01-01 |title=Service-Learning and School-to-Work: Making the Connections |url=https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/slceslgen/152 |journal=Journal of Cooperative Education |volume=32 |issue=1 |pages=7–14}}</ref>
 
=== Portland State University ===
The Student Community Engagement Center atAt [[Portland State University|Portland State]] writes on their website "Thethe Student Community Engagement Center (SCEC) is committed to creating engagement opportunities based on the idea that every member of our community has the power to be an agent of social change." According to Tania D. Mitchell, Assistant Professor of Higher Education at the University of Minnesota, Critical Service Learning can be differentiated from traditional service learning by developing an explicit focus on social justice issues and centering community needs (2008). <s>See Figure 1 for a visual representation of Dr. Mitchell’s model for Critical Service Learning.</s>
 
<s>Program of Study: Most students complete the graduate certificate in 4 academic quarter terms (1 calendar year); although it is possible to complete within 3 terms. Students have a maximum time frame for completion of 6 years. Courses are available every term; students may begin or finish any academic quarter and/or take individual courses as electives"</s>.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Williams, D., Patton, J., Beyler, R., Balshem, M., & Halka, M.

=== Purdue University ===
[[Purdue University|Purdue University's]] website states that "At Purdue University, service-learning is an educational experience in which students: a) participate in an organized service activity that meets community-identified needs; b) use knowledge and skills directly related to a course, discipline and/or specific learning outcomes; and c) reflect on the service activity in such a way as to gain further understanding of course content and/or learning outcomes and an enhanced sense of personal values and civic responsibility. Service-learning can be academic or co-curricular in nature and should not be confused with volunteerism, community service, philanthropy, or advocacy"."<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Jamieson |first=Leah |last2=Zoltowski |first2=Carla |last3=DeRego |first3=Frank |last4=Slivovsky |first4=Lynne |last5=Oakes |first5=William |title=An Analysis Of The Reflection Component In The Epics Model Of Service Learning |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.18260/1-2--13299 |journal=2004 Annual Conference Proceedings |publisher=ASEE Conferences |doi=10.18260/1-2--13299}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Foli |first=Karen J. |last2=Braswell |first2=Melanie |last3=Kirkpatrick |first3=Jane |last4=Lim |first4=Eunjung |date=March 2014 |title=Development of Leadership Behaviors in Undergraduate Nursing Students: A Service-Learning Approach |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.5480/11-578.1 |journal=Nursing Education Perspectives |volume=35 |issue=2 |pages=76–82 |doi=10.5480/11-578.1 |issn=1536-5026}}</ref>
