SIOUX CITY -- The Corporation for National and Community Service recently recognized Briar Cliff University as a leader among institutions of higher education for the Sioux City school's support of volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement.
BCU was named to the 2010 President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for engaging its students, faculty and staff in meaningful service that achieves measurable results in the community.
This year's theme at Briar Cliff is "Connecting with Joyful Service," during which students, staff and board members have been involved in service activities throughout the 2010-2011 academic year.
Honorees are chosen based on a series of selection factors, including the scope and innovation of service projects, the extent to which service-learning is embedded in the curriculum, the school's commitment to long-term campus-community partnerships and measurable community outcomes as a result of the service.
