Op Ed Challenge

In September Campus Compact coordinated an op ed campaign for member presidents in conjunction with the National Learn & Serve Challenge, a week-long campaign to raise awareness and support for service-learning. Campus Compact’s op ed template offered information on the community impact of campus engagement and an opportunity for members to promote their own service-learning initiatives.

Example Editorials

Thanks to Campus Compact for all that you have done over the years to nurture the campus service and service-learning movement. When we started at St. A's 15 years ago there was a feeling among some campuses that we were seeing higher education's latest 'flash in the pan.' Instead it was the beginning of a revolution of ideas and relationships, and you guys have been fueling us all the way."
