Community Engaged Student Assistants (CESAs) will be sharing approximately 40 community-engaged projects that they completed with faculty and community partners this past academic year. This is an opportunity to browse and meet and greet, getting to know faculty, students and partners!
3 - 4 p.m.: Program in the Auditorium
Both university and community leadership (including the Mayor's office) will be sharing about the impact of community engagement, and we'll be highlighting a couple of diverse partnered projects for inspiration. We will also share general information about CCEL's programming that community partners can benefit from.
4 - 5 p.m.: Refreshments and Continued Conversations
And then we close with informal time to chat and connect with current or future partners, exploring options for what is to come over food and drink as we close out the academic year.
