The Civic Engagement Newsletter

Allegheny College - PA, Pennsylvania
President: James H. Mullen, Jr.
Contact Person: Amara Geffen

Students who enroll in Allegheny s introductory Technical/Professional writing course confront the challenges of writing for a publication by creating one: The Civic Engagement Newsletter. Published every semester by Fahrner Fellows working with Civic Engagement Council (CEC) programs, the  newsletter highlights college – community collaborations that demonstrate best practices in public scholarship, applied liberal arts learning, civic and political engagement, and community service. The newsletter is distributed on campus in the surrounding community and to a national and international network.

Kansas Campus Compact is a confirmation of the spirit of community and participation. It commits the colleges and universities that adopt it to teach the importance of civic involvement. I wholeheartedly endorse it and look forward to the leaders it will help produce."
