It combines academic objectives with service opportunities within the metro Milwaukee community. As the only art and design college in the country with a service-learning graduation requirement, MIAD\u2019s commitment to service-learning is taken seriously by the college community. Through a program combining rigorous academic work with a required 35 hours of community service, MIAD\u2019s college students volunteer at a wide range of nonprofit organizations, such as women\u2019s shelters, environmental organizations, and afterschool tutoring programs.&nbsp; You can see a complete listing of our partners with links to their websites <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/community-partners\/\"><b>here<\/b><\/a><b>.<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">MIAD is committed to strengthening campus\/community partnerships and the college continues to be a nationwide leader in civic-engagement opportunities that help students become active, engaged members of society.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello and welcome to the Service Learning website for the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design.\u00a0 Here you will find information about HU 380 \u2013 the service course that all students complete in their Junior or Senior year.\u00a0 The course includes a 35-hour service component \u2013 and this brings MIAD students into their immediate community [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":36,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-90","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/90","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/36"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=90"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/90\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.miad.edu\/service\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=90"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
