The Bonner Center

The Bonner Center hosted the IMPACT summit, which highlighted several partnerships and participation in marquee community-based learning. The event started with talks by David Scobey (from Bringing Theory to Practice) and Marina Burnett (from Widener University). Participants also had the chance to attend breakout rooms, such as "Connecting Classroom to Community".

In September, the new Bonners had their orientation for the Bonner Scholars Program. Students had the opportunity to talk with community partners and discover new resources on campus. Welcome to Oberlin!
