The following members of the faculty at Syracuse University have been designated Laura J. and L. Douglas Meredith Professors and are members of the Meredith Symposium. An Easy Guide to Doing Good Deeds in Your Everyday Life. I completed two projects as part of my Meredith commitment.
Students read material about how to improve society and then worked on special projects.
An Easy Guide to Doing Good Deeds in Your Everyday Life . A version of the course is now offered each semester. The other project was to inventory the different ways faculty throughout the University use undergraduates as teaching assistants. Fifty-five different courses that somehow involved undergraduates as collaborators with faculty were identified, and a paper was written describing the uses and relative benefits and costs. Several inquiries among faculty were received, and in at least one instance, undergraduate teaching assistants were incorporated in a large lower division course.
