Carnegie Classification for Community Engagement

Posted on Thursday, July 28th, 2011
The Carnegie Foundation offers an elective classification for community engagement.  You can read more about the classification here. Some thoughts:
  • When will this classification move from elective to a basic or traditional classification?  Since service-learning and civic engagement trends are growing rapidly, my outlook is positive that this will someday be the case.
  • The next opportunity for institutions to apply for this designation is 2015.
