Description

The Spanish Language Internship Program (SLIP) connects Spanish-speaking students with partnered community-based organizations and schools to provide unique service-learning opportunities with the Latino Community. This engaged learning course exposes students to a broad study of Latino experiences in the U.S. and focuses on crossing borders, fair labor practices, citizenship, Racism, Latino history in the United States, Comparisons of discrimination and inequality, along with current political and community issues. Through volunteering efforts, students will gain insight into the culture, economic needs and gain a better understanding of the Latino experience. SLIP offers this unique opportunity for students to engage in experiential learning related to community service work as well as improve and apply their Spanish speaking and writing skills. Placements are available for all levels of Spanish proficiency. Contact faculty advisor, tssnell@umich.edu, for placement listing and to schedule a virtual appointment.
