Campuses Are Citizens: What?s Your Story?

October 12-13, 2006
Earle Brown Heritage Center, Minneapolis

Every college and university has an important story to tell about its public role and its contributions to healthy, just, democratic communities. This exciting conference will offer participants an opportunity not only to share the many ways they, their colleagues and partners are addressing important community issues through various forms of civic engagement, but also to explore how they might frame and communicate stories and information about their efforts most effectively for specific purposes, including fundraising, tenure and promotion, evaluation and program improvement, accreditation, and public relations.

Students and community partners are eligible to apply for a scholarship to attend the conference at a greatly reduced price.

Online registration is available at:

This conference is sponsored by the Upper Midwest Campus Compact Consortium (comprised of the Compacts in Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin) with support from the Learn and Serve America program of the Corporation for National and Community Service.
