Strategic Planning

Community Engaged Campus (ONGOING)
The community engaged campus is driven by the value that arises from mutually beneficial campus community partnerships which incorporate diverse perspectives that strengthen the collective impact on the region. Through the utilization of the GivePulse (PenguinPulse) platform, YSU will collect all community engaged experiential learning occurring both within and outside of the classroom. PenguinPulse serves as the community engagement clearinghouse to enhance communication, collaboration and coordination. The PenguinPulse newsletter showcases community engagement impacts and serves as the source of campus communication for community engagement and partnerships. The Community Partner Advisory Committee provides opportunities for input from community partners and adheres to the value of listening to the needs of the community and addressing needs collaboratively. The Community Engagement Council will lead the development of the YSU application to the Carnegie Foundation Elective Classification for Community Engagement.
