The Student Experience at CCE
Community Engaged Learning (CEL) is a process that connects concepts in the classroom to service experiences in the community. The Sundborg Center for Community Engagement (CCE) works with instructors to identify community organizations where Seattle University students can be matched in either placement-based or project-based experiences.

Reflecting on CEL Outcomes
Community Engaged Learning (CEL) is a process that connects concepts in the classroom to service experiences in the community. The Sundborg Center for Community Engagement (CCE) works with instructors to identify community organizations where Seattle University students can be matched in either placement-based or project-based experiences.
