This paper explores how community partners exchange value during HIPs through reciprocity and their teaching and learning roles as co-educators. Nine Midwest organizations responded to a survey highlighting their previous participation as community partners. This evidence helps identify preliminary insights that foster effective collaboration strategies to strengthen community partners\u2019 expertise and contributions to the educational process. Importantly, findings also highlight the value of continued collaboration, with respondents expressing interest in ongoing roles or additional tools to enhance their effectiveness as co-educators. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"723\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02102953\/Screenshot-2026-04-02-at-10.29.49-AM-723x1024.png\" alt=\"Dr. Luis Orozco's abstract for his recently published journal titled \u201cReciprocity and co-education: The evolving role of Midwest community partners.&quot;\" class=\"wp-image-3511 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02102953\/Screenshot-2026-04-02-at-10.29.49-AM-723x1024.png 723w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02102953\/Screenshot-2026-04-02-at-10.29.49-AM-212x300.png 212w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02102953\/Screenshot-2026-04-02-at-10.29.49-AM-768x1088.png 768w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02102953\/Screenshot-2026-04-02-at-10.29.49-AM-1084x1536.png 1084w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02102953\/Screenshot-2026-04-02-at-10.29.49-AM.png 1224w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:40% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02103139\/Sollars_PMJA-AWARD_Stan-Sollars-700x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3512 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02103139\/Sollars_PMJA-AWARD_Stan-Sollars-700x1024.png 700w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02103139\/Sollars_PMJA-AWARD_Stan-Sollars-205x300.png 205w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02103139\/Sollars_PMJA-AWARD_Stan-Sollars-768x1124.png 768w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/04\/02103139\/Sollars_PMJA-AWARD_Stan-Sollars.png 1005w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Department of Media and IPR&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bsu.edu\/academics\/collegesanddepartments\/media\/about-us\/faculty-staff\/sollarsstanley\">Stan Sollars<\/a> won his 41st &#8220;Best Newscast&#8221; Award &#8212; A national 1st Place &#8212; from the Public Media Journalists Association.
