Popis: This study conducted inductive analyses on faculty motivations, barriers, and strategies for service-learning (SL) adoption in a major public research university in the Southeast United States. Data found faculty members with prior SL experience were often motivated by intrinsic personal values, yet external barriers need to be addressed to increase morale. An overwhelming lack of recognition and rewards was perceived, despite the institutional policy set to formally recognize SL. The policy–practice gap and issues compounding the implementation in a research institution context were highlighted. Results provide insights to better institutionalize policy and support to encourage faculty SL adoption.
