Campus Compact invites members to join in a series of “coalition conversations” for collective thinking and action focused on common themes in our work. These conversations are part of our coalition-building work, driven by members committed to collaboratively advancing community and civic engagement work in higher education. How do institutions re-engage their students in deep, meaningful community engagement following the pandemic? The safety concerns of the last 18 months have disrupted both curricular and co-curricular student engagement. Now, the transition back to “normal” has begun. While we recognize that many innovative practices resulted from the pandemic, most campuses are now facing lower student engagement levels due to challenges like low motivation, increasing academic demands, increasing mental health concerns, and changes in campus community belonging traditions and practices. How can we evolve our practice—not to simply replicate what we did prior to the pandemic—but to creatively engage students to meet the most pressing community priorities while honoring their own needs?

Advanced CAP Institutes will bring institutional teams together for shared learning about CAP implementation and planning for future direction. Key focus areas include: Strategy for persistence and sustainability: How has the CAP aligned with other institutional initiatives? How has leadership and participation evolved? Alignment with commitments: Has a focus on equity remained central? What have been the impacts? In what ways has institutional teaching, research, and action changed to align with these values? Next level work: How can we continue to go deeper? What’s been working? The offering will be informed by a pre-survey of registrants to determine final priority areas for focus. The Institutes are open to institutional teams that implemented plans and that continue to advance institutional transformation work through a CAP. The structure will be discussion-based with break out time for individual teams.

These conversations are part of our coalition-building work, driven by members committed to collaboratively advancing community and civic engagement work in higher education. How do units responsible for overseeing community engagement initiatives sustain momentum through executive leadership transitions and other changes on campus? In the absence of a strong impetus for institution-wide organizing and coordination (e.g., external grant funding, preparing Carnegie applications, or developing quality enhancement plans for reaccreditation), what strategies and pathways might sustain or even enhance the institutionalization of engagement? How do we organize and collectively build a broader infrastructure that enhances buy-in, support, and shared leadership for engagement activities across campus and community?
