Forexample, one participant wrote that s/he liked, “the emphasis of communication in the graded portions [ofthe service-learning module], this is something that Engineering classes do a very bad job at teaching even though itis essential in CE”.Finally, a large number of the student participants said a major benefit of the experience was theopportunity to get to know their classmates and professors better. “This also helped me meet and bondwith classmates, which means more study buddies!”, wrote one participant. Other examples stated, “Duringthe build day, it was rewarding to work with our peers in a challenging setting outside of school.

After discussions with the currentstudent leaders, it was determined that the actual differential of work between EWB-USA andEPICS is not that significant and the benefits of the additional accountability of being graded forcredit motivated the change in policy to limit the number of audits.The EPICS curricular and assessment processes aligned very well with the EWB-USA structureand philosophy. Both EPICS and EWB-USA promote and rely on strong student leaders. TheEPICS structure did not reduce the student leadership and it allowed the inclusion of theprofessional mentors.
