“The moral of my story is that what an institution, division or unit does is less important to student learning and development than that whatever it does has one or more of the characteristics of effective learning experiences, and the more the better.”

— Patrick Terenzini, distinguished professor of higher education and senior scientist emeritus in the Department of Education Policy Studies and the Center for the Study of Higher Education at Penn State, speaking at the inaugural Engaged Scholarship Symposium today (March 25) on Penn State’s University Park campus.
