Dr. Nathan Webb, assistant professor of communications and Tim Stewart, director of service-learning, recently presented a poster at the Gulf-South Summit on Service-Learning and Civic Engagement through Higher Education in Greensboro, North Carolina. Their poster, entitled “Partnering Up for Literacy: A Case Study on How Partnerships Can Help Create a More Literate Community,” examined how Webb’s Teamwork in Organizations class formed multiple partnerships to help create a more literate and inclusive community. They focused on how partnerships, both in the Nashville community and within the university, were formed and maintained to engage in recruiting volunteers, fundraising, marketing, communication and other important areas.
