Congratulations to Professor Jan Selman on her appointment as Director of the University of Alberta's Community-Service Learning (CSL)Program for the next 18 month period.

Jan is a Full Professor in Drama and the former Chair of the Department. She is the director of Loveplay, going up on the mainstage next week too!

Her area of expertise is in directing and dramaturgy, and she specializes in participatory and community-based theatre. Her work has earned many accolades, including induction into the Royal Society of Canada. She has a long history of involvement with CSL and a strong commitment to community-engaged research and pedagogy.

What is CSL? The program offers opportunities for students to serve as interns on local non-profit boards, and for U of A staff and graduate students to teach courses to adults facing barriers to education through the Humanities 101 program.
