Come join the BGSU Center for Public Impact for a FREE Watch Party to view this year's Campus Compact conference series!

This series will focus on Resilience and Responsibility for Racial and Environmental Justice, two components of the systemic injustice that result in the unkept promise of full and equitable participation in education, employment, health care and environmental quality.

This FREE event will be held in in University Hall 310 in order to provide ample room for social distancing. The event will begin with a collaboratory demonstration followed by a group viewing of the conference presentations. Refreshments will be provided!

Conference participants, students, community partners, national service members, veterans, faculty, staff, and administrators will explore how to partner in renewing the promise of full participation in higher education, a flourishing democracy, and productive, meaningful and gainful careers.
