1. Where did you go to college? (Include grad year)
Providence College, ‘96
2. Were you “civically engaged” in college? If so, how?
I got turned on to the idea and practice of “service learning” in college when I saw for the first time that academic life and trying to change the world did not have to be two separate things. I coordinated an after-school program at a local middle school; and was involved in various neighborhood organizing efforts-- some successful, many not so successful—and learned the importance of time and relationships to organizing for change.
