By compiling examples of civic capacity and social change activities, articles, text and assignments from disciplines across the campus, faculty will have access to these content within Canvas to import into their shell. These easily accessible resources can infuse civic capacity and social change across disciplines in an effort to ensure our students are empowered to be agents of change within their communities, regardless of their field of study or discipline.
Develop mechanism for "Community Engaged Scholar" designation to be on student transcripts, possibly as a badge.
