Dr. Linda Armstrong Chisholm’s mastery of service-learning for collegians not only led to cofounding in 1982 with Howard Berry the International Partnership for Service-Learning, but to publication in 2000 of her seminal guide Charting A Hero’s Journey (International Partnership for Service Learning, 2000).   Now with her death, it is appropriate to reflect on charting her life journey itself.

His solemn task and deed… is to return… to us, transfigured, and teach the lesson he has learned of life renewed. (from The Hero with a Thousand Faces.)
