Book Launch: Pathways of Social Impact: Higher Education for the Public Good – Oct 28

Posted by Campus Compact on September 30, 2025

Join us for the Pathways of Social Impact: Higher Education for the Public Good book launch!

This book brings together a range of perspectives to deepen our understanding of students’ interests, motivations, and approaches to social change. At its core is the Pathways framework—a tool designed to help educators better understand and support students’ evolving civic identities and engagement strategies. In the book launch, we will share a brief history of the pathways framework and describe the process of creating the book.

The book is organized into three sections. The first, Pathways Practitioner Profiles, introduces the core knowledge, skills, and dispositions associated with each of the six social impact Pathways. The second section presents case studies from eight institutions that have adopted the Pathways in distinct and innovative ways. The final section offers theoretical, empirical, and critical reflections on the framework’s potential to enhance the quality, diversity, and coherence of civic and community engagement programs in higher education. These sections will be explored in depth at following webinars starting in January 2026.

Date and Time: Tuesday, October 28, 2025, 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM
