Between sharp declines in state aid and revenue, as well as growing challenges from competitors (i.e., Google Career Certificates), the longstanding stability higher education has enjoyed is dwindling. As higher education looks to the future, faculty and student affairs professionals need to find intentional ways to partner, allowing utilization of resources from both parties. This chapter explores one such partnership focused on leadership and civic engagement at a small private university in the Midwest. The chapter includes a framework for collaborative success, built from multiple leadership models, learner orientation, and negotiation tactics.","PeriodicalId":175477,"journal":{"name":"The Proper Role of Higher Education in a Democratic Society","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130259183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through their open access policies, immersion in their local communities, and mission of preparing students for transfer or the workforce, they are positioned to produce graduates who have the skills to become change agents in their communities. Incorporating civic engagement within the community college setting often presents steep challenges as a result of funding models, a national narrow-focus on completion and credential production, and the barriers their own students face. Yet despite these challenges, community colleges across the country are increasingly focusing on methods of encouraging the civic engagement of their students and are participating in high-impact practices. Research confirms that students who are engaged civically do better academically. By assessing their civic programming, community colleges can shine light on the value of civic engagement as a fundamental outcome of a community college education. Only then will these institutions fully realize their mission as America's democracy colleges.","PeriodicalId":175477,"journal":{"name":"The Proper Role of Higher Education in a Democratic Society","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130840977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When an initiative is simply work, done without alignment to larger learning goals or the inducements faculty follow in seeking tenure and rank promotion, that initiative usually fails. Roughly 20 years into the era of civic skill-building focus in the academy, civic engagement is still at a place where it is ‘finding its way' at universities where it has been implemented. To fully integrate and become a stable, mission-central commitment, civic engagement must become something from which faculty, staff, and students can see the tangible benefits. Three developments in the evolution of civic engagement in the academy are hallmarks of the success intentional incentives have in advancing civic skill-building in college students. The chapter will focus on those three best practices of civic engagement: student civic engagement learning outcomes, incentives for faculty participation, and curricular integration.","PeriodicalId":175477,"journal":{"name":"The Proper Role of Higher Education in a Democratic Society","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126386037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The United States has seen a recent rise in political tribalism, and it now faces rising antipathy between those holding polarized perspectives. Higher education is uniquely situated to address these problems. Like a mixing bowl, college is a place where students of all backgrounds can be combined in deep discourse at a key point in their psychological development. However, higher education has struggled to fulfill its potential, as efforts toward diversity have rarely achieved their goals. Utilizing the concepts of social empathy and honest diversity, a new approach to diversity work in higher education may hold the key to establishing the sector's prominence in developing a society of diverse people who can function respectfully toward one another.","PeriodicalId":175477,"journal":{"name":"The Proper Role of Higher Education in a Democratic Society","volume":"385 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116487332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This chapter focuses on the role presidents have as agents of ongoing engagement in civic and democratic ideals and efforts. In the midst of a global pandemic, police violence, racial injustice, and the conclusion to a divisive four-year presidency, 2020 presented college and university presidents with unique challenges on their campuses. Leading a campus is further complicated by competing interests and the identities of presidents themselves with most presidents identifying as white men in their 60s. Lastly, this chapter will share examples of best practices demonstrating ways in which presidents are driving democracy and civic engagement in varying ways centered in recent world events such as the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, violent deaths of Black community members, and the presidential election.","PeriodicalId":175477,"journal":{"name":"The Proper Role of Higher Education in a Democratic Society","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121715924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
