Agenda 01/24/2017 Item #16E401/24/2017
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve the Service Learning Agreement between the Florida Gulf
Coast University Board of Trustees (FGCU) and the Collier County Board of County
Commissioners and authorize the Chairman to execute the agreement.
OBJECTIVE: To provide opportunities for students at Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) to engage
in service learning within the departments and divisions of Collier County BCC (the County), which ties
into the mission statement of the University to “nurture community partnerships, highlight the value of
public service and encourage civic responsibility”.
CONSIDERATIONS: FGCU, through its Office of Service Learning and Civic Engagement, looks for
opportunities in the community through service organizations that can provide service learning to its
students. Service-learning is an experientially based teaching methodology which combines classroom
pedagogy with community action. Through service-learning, students learn and develop through active
participation in thoughtfully-organized service experiences that meet actual community needs.
The Service Learning Agreement clearly outlines the responsibilities of the University, the County and
the FGCU Students who will participate in the program, and provides for a two-year fixed term for the
Agreement based on the date of execution. Upon a written amendment signed by both parties, the
agreement can be renewed for two additional, one-year terms.
FISCAL IMPACT: There are no Fiscal impacts associated with this Executive Summary.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There are no Growth Management Impacts associated with
this Executive Summary.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote
for approval. - CMG
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners approves the Service Learning
Agreement between Florida Gulf Coast University Board of Trustees (FGCU) and the Collier
