One with the Community : Indicators of Engagement at Minority-Serving Institutions

This volume showcases the innovative ways that historically Black colleges and universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, and Tribal colleges and universities interweave their educational missions with community goals. These minority-serving institutions have a tremendous track record of accessing, retaining, and engaging diverse students while making a real and lasting difference in their communities. One with the Community captures successful strategies-including curricular approaches, partnering strategies, and support mechanisms-that enrich both the campus and the community. With detailed descriptions and examples from the field, the text offers models for any higher education institution seeking to create a culture of engagement. Also included is a comprehensive self-assessment tool to help campuses evaluate and deepen their own engagement practices.Zlotkowski, Edward is the author of 'One with the Community : Indicators of Engagement at Minority-Serving Institutions', published 2005 under ISBN 9780972939447 and ISBN 097293944X.
