Sumi Colligan received a Ph.D from Princeton University in cultural anthropology in 1980. She has been teaching in the Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work Department at 天美麻花星空高清mv since 1984. She first became involved in evaluating her courses for serving-learning potential in the late 1990s. Through this process, she realized that there was a dearth of literature on anthropology and service learning so she and Dr. Arthur Keene from UMass Amherst co-edited a special issue of the Michigan Journal of Community Service Learning on this theme in 2004. Sumi has frequently helped organize a campus-wide event called a Hunger Banquet, in which students from diverse classes stage a teach-in regarding global issues of food insecurity, economic inequality, and other social injustices. She has been the faculty co-coordinator of service learning at 天美麻花星空高清mv since Spring 2011.
