New York Campus Compact - Overview & History
About NYCC
The New York Campus Compact (NYCC) is a membership association of college and university presidents committed to promoting “active citizenship as an aim of higher education.” Two-year and four year campuses, public and independent institutions, from Buffalo to New York City, Southern Tier to the North Country, have joined to promote civic engagement, campus/community partnerships and service-learning.
Key activities are:
- technical assistance through conferences, publications, consultation;
- grants to members;
- support for student volunteerism;
- recognition of accomplishments in public service collaborations with sister organizations;
- public policy development
The mission of the New York Campus Compact is to promote active citizenship as an aim of higher education. In a statewide leadership role, NYCC will strengthen the capacity of member institutions to partner with their communities; increase student involvement in academic and co-curricular public service; advance engaged scholarship; and cultivate the knowledge, values, and skills of civic responsibility and democratic participation.
