Big Ten Engagement Committee Follow-Up
by Kathleen Lodl 08 Jul '26

08 Jul '26

Hello all - Thanks for the quick responses on dates for our F2F meeting. The best choice that matches availability of the Big Ten Conference Center is Thursday/Friday, December 10 and 11. We will begin at 8:30 on December 10 and finish at 11:00 on December 11. We can work on a draft agenda and details. Here are some other updates from last month, feel free to add what I’ve missed! Big Ten Committees * Thanks to Keith Marshall for the attached listing of Big Ten Committees. We can review and see if there are any where it might make sense to further collaborate. Working with/Funding through Foundation Partners * We spent time talking about how we might better leverage our Foundation partners in support of our work. One option is to have a couple of our most engaged foundation partners join us for one of calls to determine how we might best provide them information they could use to help us seek out interested partners. From there, we could each invite our foundation reps (if appropriate) to one of our meetings (maybe December F2F?) to have a discussion. Another idea is to join them in one of their meetings. If you have a Foundation rep who is already on board, think about whether they might be good to bring in for a conversation. Morgan, you thought you might have someone; there will also be others. Hearing from Current Outside Funders * It might be helpful to bring in an outside donor to talk about their interest in engagement work and how we best present that work to meet joint goals. We can talk about ideas you might have from your own institutions. The Impact Funders Forum might also have some information that would be helpful to us. Linkages to Carnegie Engagement Designation - As USD continues their evolution of the Carnegie Engagement Designation, we want to keep connected so we are on track with collecting the right data. We might also help inform them of how the questions asked in the certification/recertification process could be used for other accreditation purposes (both at the college level and institution - like sustainability) in order to value add to the process and not duplicate campus efforts. Engaging Deans * More intentionally engaging Deans in engagement work is a good strategy for campus institutionalization. We will continue to discuss strategies for doing that. A closer alignment between their needs and what we need for the Carnegie designation can be one way of connecting. How could we better leverage the civic and community engagement connection? Processes for Data Collection -All are in search of best practices and ways to ease the pain of data collection. Maryland has interest. Tagging Engagement Courses -Strategies and best practices for tagging courses and research projects to engagement continue to be a point of discussion. Best practices will be topic for this fall. On-Line Engagement Courses -Are their opportunities for offering on-line engagement courses for the public? Could be on how to engage with their institutions or how they might engage with their partners on a local level. Rutgers and Iowa and some ideas on this. Student Engagement -Questions that arise are around funding travel for off-campus engagement, tracking, telling the impact stories, etc. How do we ensure these are truly engagement experiences? It was a robust discussion to be sure! We can discuss more during our August meeting. In the meantime, enjoy the 250th Independence Day celebration and all of July!

Howdy folks! Quick question: does anybody have a link where the number of community-based or community-engaged courses are listed or described in your institutions? If yes, who does the labeling: your office? Registrar? Faculty? Thanks and hope to hear soon from you.
