  Program: Campus Compact

  Function

  Beginning in FY 2005, the Legislature appropriated funds for the institutions of higher education to become members of the Campus Compact. The Utah Campus Compact is a coalition of college and university presidents and their campuses that has the goal of fostering the values and skills of citizenship in students. This is accomplished through students being actively involved in academically-based and co-curricular civic and community service. The Campus Compact also offers professional development for faculty, staff, and students at each of its 13 campuses engaged in service-learning and/or community service/volunteerism. The Compact also provides grant funding and scholarships. Members include all of the nine institutions in the USHE, the Utah College of Applied Technology, Brigham Young University, LDS Business College and Westminster College. During 2011-12, the Campus Compact provided for the following:

  • 34,066 students served 718,485 hours and earned $2.3 million in scholarships;
  • Grant funding in the amount of $153,835 was distributed to eight institutions to support service initiatives, community outreach, and student access to higher education;
  • 14 professional development and training events were held with 589 faculty, staff, and students participating.
