Marcel Teppich, who recently completed the master's program in Inclusive Music Education/Community Music at KU, had the opportunity to meet with Pope Francis at an audience on St. Peter's Square along with students from other countries. The occasion of the meeting was a multi-day symposium of the worldwide network "Uniservitate" in Rome. Students and lecturers from more than 30 Catholic universities from 26 countries exchanged ideas on the topic of Service Learning at the conference.
The Eichstätt delegation at the symposium, titled "Service-Learning and Global Compact on Education: Educating for Fraternity in Higher Education," included Christiane Hoth de Olano and Kris Holler, who coordinate the Uniservitate project at KU. Also in the group were Marcel Teppich, Marion Haak-Schulenburg, a research assistant in the Department of Music, and Thomas Sporer, head of the Education Innovation and Knowledge Transfer Office.
