http://www.compact.org/wp-content/uploads/initiatives/research_universities/Civic_Engagement.pdf
This report focuses on opportunities and challenges in four areas critical to expanding and institutionalizing civic engagement within research universities: engaged scholarship (i.e., scholarship aimed at critical societal issues); scholarship focused on civic and communtiy engagement; educating students for engagement; and advancing civic engagement within and across research universities.
We want to develop a student leadership program to provide support to our local agencies with the majority of work being done recruiting campus organizations to serve at various sites. The Campus Compact material was the most useful resource thus far. Thank you!
