Re-engaging a Pioneer: Robert L. Sigmon and Service-Learning Roots

Robert L. Sigmon invested a career in building quality experiential education and service-learning. Upon contributing his "library" to Elon University, Partnerships engaged him in conversation about his work, and rich legacy to the field. In this article, we re-introduce this pioneer, review his work, and hear his ongoing challenge to the field. Partnerships encourages researchers today to access the archives at Elon to expand service-learning research.KEYWORDSservice-learning; community partnerships; service-learning pioneers; community engagemen
