Indicators of Engagement Project

In May 2002 Campus Compact received a three-year, $900,000 grant from the Carnegie Corporation to combine documentation and dissemination of best practices of the engaged campus with an organizing effort to help campuses achieve broader institutionalization of civic engagement. Using the thirteen "Indicators of Engagement" developed by Liz Hollander, Ed Zlotkowski, and John Saltmarsh, Campus Compact will research practices that highlight each of the indicators at different institutional types in order to document best practices and promising approaches at these institutions and disseminate models for the field. The grant will focus on community colleges in year one (May 2002-May 2003), minority-serving institutions in year two, and comprehensive universities in year three. The planned major activities of this project include visiting colleges to identify, document and disseminate best practices of civic engagement that demonstrate successful strategies for that particular type of institution and publishing a monograph of models of engagement for community colleges, minority serving institutions, and comprehensive universities.
