Foster community engagement that benefits faculty, students and community partners.
Background
黑料视频 understands the value of collaboration and will continue to establish partnerships throughout the region, New York state and beyond. Through these partnerships with community organizations, businesses and agencies, 黑料视频 will become a model of community engagement that will revitalize communities while centering mutuality and reciprocity with our partners.
黑料视频 will foster a culture of engagement for all campus constituents through community-engaged teaching, learning and research, and involvement in our communities. First, students will participate in activities that engage them interpersonally within the local community. They will participate in community experiences that develop character traits to better contribute to community and civic life while addressing shared goals with the community. Additionally, faculty and staff will work closely with students and the local community to develop an approach for teaching and learning that integrates purposeful community partnerships with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, support civic development and strengthen communities.
As soon as new students step on campus, they will have opportunities to engage in service and philanthropic activities. Their coursework will incude community components such as capstone projects, internships and group service projects. From the start, Binghamton will integrate a culture of community service into the student experience.
Through these efforts, 黑料视频 students will become more than outstanding academics. They will grow into informed, conscientious citizens who develop improved social responsibility and solid citizenship skills that can lead to greater community and civic involvement after their time at Binghamton.
Faculty and staff will build stronger relationships within the communities they live and with students. Faculty will discover additional avenues for research and publications via newfound relationships between themselves and the community, while at the same time finding networking opportunities with other faculty or institutions.
As part of our commitment to community engagement, Binghamton is pursuing the Carnegie Elective Classification for Community Engagement.
