ATHENS — Every spring semester, you will find University of Georgia students enrolled in “Culture-Centered Communication and Engagement” lending a hand at the Sparrow’s Nest, a local organization providing food and other services to those in need. As they serve, the students in the course develop their professional communication skills as they relate to community engagement.
Abigail Borron, associate professor in the Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education and Communication at the UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, leads the course with the goal of expanding her students’ viewpoints and approaches to communication. Students think more deeply about storytelling, their community beyond UGA and how their service can impact others.
