Description
Summary:University efforts to galvanize work that is often siloed and disconnected across departments is supported by collaborative and creative initiatives. Campbell University's mission to support community engagement at multiple levels of university life, while also emphasizing faith and vocation, is an example of how one university is modeling this work. This case study on a specific program at Campbell University, the Campbell Youth Theological Institute, demonstrates how remembering the mission and how it connects it to the larger university and is implemented can reenergize faculty and students towards a deeper understanding of faith and vocation, as well as transformational community engagement.
