National Campus Compact

Founded in 1985 by the presidents of Brown, Georgetown and Stanford universities, the Campus Compact organization was designed to combat the popular image of college students as being wholly self-absorbed and uninterested in the broad range of social concerns outside the walls of their respective colleges and universities. Today, the organization remains committed to helping a wide variety of institutions create supportive academic environments for community service and to forming partnerships with a host of institutions, including those in the worlds of business and social-service providers. As might be expected, there is a wide range of free publications available on the site, including materials on starting campus-community partnerships, information on relevant legislation and policy, and materials on incorporating service-learning projects into the college-level curriculum. Of course, visitors will want to take a look at the current edition (and the archived issues) of their two fine in-house publications, the Campus Compact Reader (which highlights the best writing on civic education and service-learning from around the US), and the Compact Current, which is the organization's quarterly newsletter for organizations and institutions involved in public and community service.
