Dear [Manager],
This year, I’d like to attend Campus Compact's
Compact22 conference. Compact22 takes place March 29th-31st and will be held entirely online. Civic and community engagement professionals, engaged scholars, senior administrators, and community partners from institutions across the country will come together for sessions focused around "A Better Way Forward: Innovation with Equity at the Center." Through workshops, panels, keynotes, interactive discussions and more, the conference will explore ways higher education can contribute to building a democracy that leads to opportunity and voice for all. Compact22 is the largest and most inclusive conference focused on higher education civic and community engagement. Check out some of the
videos and session materials from previous conferences—it looks like a great event.
I think this conference is a great opportunity for us to learn from other institutions, engage with leaders in the field, connect with potential partners, and bring back new techniques and best practices to campus. I’m particularly excited about [SPECIFIC SESSION, EVENT, OR TOPIC] which I think will help us [APPLY TO YOUR WORK].
My attendance will cost about [COST] for registration. I will ensure my duties are covered while I’m away and will take detailed notes and give a short recap presentation for our team when I return.
Thanks in advance for considering my request. I’m happy to talk further about this opportunity and answer any questions you might have.
Best,
[Future Compact22 Attendee]
