9:20 a.m.	Is there evidence that service-learning helps students get jobs? Does service-learning help create a sense of professionalism among students (such as in the way they write, speak, and/or present themselves)? Is there any evidence that service-learning helps create a more positive impression of a college or university among townspeople? What can be done to create more service-learning opportunities?

What are the various roles of faculty, administrators, and site supervisors in service-learning project design and implementation? Does service-learning have a role helping students learn 21st century skills (communication, teamwork, etc.)? Are certain geoscience sectors or employers more amenable to service-learning projects? What role should funders play in expanding service-learning opportunities for geoscience students?
