Description

The missions of our colleges and universities provide us with the goals and values that drive everything we do in and outside of the classroom. We have a mutually reinforcing relationship with our missions; they are the fuel that guides us in building support when launching campus-wide initiatives, and in turn, these efforts help to further evolve our missions. Through this Knowledge-to-Action Workshop, attendees will learn how the University of North Florida leveraged and expanded their mission. This initiative built sustained support for civic engagement and civil dialogue programming across campus, ultimately leading to the creation of the Office of Service-Learning and Civic Engagement (OSLCE) and the continued use of Unify America’s Civic Gym.
