"They Call Me Mr. Community": Faculty Perspectives of Engaged Scholarship and Promotion and Tenure
Pathways to Achieving Civic Engagement (PACE) Conference (2010)

Abstract

Facilitators share the results of a study examining faculty who indentify as "engaged scholars," as well as the guiding conceptual frameworks used to analyze the narratives. Similarities and differences among engaged scholars – and the implications of these findings for crafting institutional definitions, policies, and programs — will be explored. Participants will be invited to map their own engaged trajectories and to describe the experiences that served to solidify their commitment to engagement. Various strategies will be discussed, particularly those programs that have the most potential to catalyze and sustain faculty members’ commitments to community-engaged work.
