UTA Center for Service Learning

Faculty/Community Partner Highlight of the Week ⚡️:

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Professor Tracy Orwig has taught several health-related MSW courses, as well as a bachelor’s level course that introduces students to interviewing and engaging with clients.

Her students have partnered with LifeGift, an Organ Procurement Organization (OPO), to help educate people about the gift of organ and tissue transplants. Their project was to partner with a community agency/organization, set up a booth, educate people about organ donation and offer the opportunity for people to sign up to be organ donors.

On March 27th, Camp Gladiator is having an event at the new Texas Rangers stadium that includes a workout. The students in her course will be out there at a booth throughout the afternoon/evening. The students are very excited about this event as there are currently 2100 people signed up and they expect over 4000 people.

Here is the event information:
