The Campus Action Plan: So, How's That Going on Your Campus?

One of the signature events that various Campus Compact institutions are engaged in during the 2016-17 academic year is creating and then executing a Civic Action Plan (CAP). Representatives from many of those institutions have attended one or more Campus Compact events, but it would not be surprising to learn that uncertainty about the CAP remains. In this session, panelists will examine what they've been able to accomplish during this academic year vis-a-vis a CAP, and what are their important next steps. Significant time in this session will be reserved for participants and the audience to share ideas about successes and frustrations during the CAP preparation process.
