I am Castel Sweet, and this academic year I am serving as Campus Compact’s Strategy & Visioning Fellow. As part of my fellowship, I am looking at Campus Compact members and the broader higher education community around the integration of diversity, equity, and inclusion and community/civic engagement efforts on university and college campuses.
To help us better understand the numerous ways college and university campuses are striving towards the integration of diversity, equity, and inclusion with their community and civic engagement efforts, I would like to hear from you. Please consider completing a short survey to share how your campus is thinking about the integration of this work.
Your input and perspective will help us identify ways we can collectively make progress toward engaging more equitably as a field.
For those interested in hearing from a few university and college campuses that have integrated diversity, equity, and inclusion and community/civic engagement structures. I will be facilitating a Campus Compact webinar on Thursday, February 23, 2023, from 3 pm-4:30 pm EST. During the webinar, panelists will share about their department structure and cross-campus collaborations that better positions them to advance equitable engagement. It will be a great conversation, and I hope you will be able to join us.
