Authors:
Description:
This white paper, based on the Creating Cohesive Paths to Civic Engagement initiative, documents a mapping/survey of civic engagement curriculum and how it can serve as a powerful catalyst for change on campuses. The initiative undertaken by 26 Periclean colleges and universities promotes a more intentional approach to civic engagement prioritizing coherent program design and the diffusion of civic engagement throughout the undergraduate experience. Research reveals five approaches to organizing civic engagement curricular and co-curricular programming: Civic Engagement and Social Responsibility Requirements, Civic Scholars Programs, Pathway Approaches, Certificates, and Entrepreneurial/Open Choice Models.
