ACTIVITY II:
Helping and Hindering Student Civic Engagement

As you look at the people and places you identified (and potentially interviewed) above, think about the “strengths” and “gaps” on your campuses for fostering students voice and civic engagement. Specifically, how does your university “help support” and how does your university “hinder” student voice and student civic engagement? Use the following questions to guide your discussion in determining the strengths and the gaps on your campus.


STRENGTHS—SUPPORTING STUDENT VOICE AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT

• In what areas is your campus strong at student voice and/or civic engagement?

• How does your university help support student voice and/or civic engagement?

GAPS—HINDERING STUDENT VOICE AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT

• In what areas does your campus need more opportunities for student voice and/or civic engagement?

• How does your university hinder student voice and/or civic engagement?
