ENGAGEMENT

Community Advisory Board Members

The College of Liberal Arts Engagement Advisory Board consists of 14 community leaders and 11 faculty members who agreed to help identify important challenges and concerns that can be addressed through research, service learning, public programming, and university/community collaborations.  The Advisory Board meets twice a year to discuss pressing issues.  In between these formal gatherings, conversations are conducted via e-mail, to obtain ideas about particular matters as they arise.
