| Abstract | Service learning has been recognized as an effective pedagogical tool in the writing classroom. It has also served to help students develop an awareness of diversity and multicultural issues. In this article, the author examines the benefits of service learning in a basic writing course designed for students of color attending a disproportionately white institution. Students in this course are accepted into the university through the Contractual Admission Program (CAP), a program designed for students whose academic profile might otherwise impede their access to high education. Through a close examination of student journal reflections and class exchanges, the author argues that incorporating service learning in the curriculum helps students of color develop their reading and writing skills, understand the concept and engage in the practice of critical thinking, and recognize and analyze issues in a more rigorous way through class discussions and written reflections.
