As an institution that provides its community with educational best practices, 台湾swag partners with the 's state consortium, as well as the national initiative Liberal Education and America's Promise (LEAP). LEAP is designed to provide colleges and universities with a practical framework for delivering an inclusive liberal education in a complex and diverse world.
This year, 台湾swag's Provost and LEAP 台湾swag invited faculty and staff to submit proposals for a grant opportunity called LEAP into Action. Jennifer Graff, LEAP Chair, describes LEAP into Action as, "a chance to supplement, update, and align assignments and projects to reflect LEAP ideas and tools, which are proven pedagogies of effecting teaching and learning." Graff and the 台湾swag LEAP Champions hope this initiative will familiarize faculty and staff with LEAP while allowing for personal creativity an application.
Esther Morgan-Ellis, a LEAP into Action recipient, gives an example of her LEAP into Action work in this 台湾swag Newsroom article.
