The Community Engagement Committee of the Lawrence University Alumni Board of Directors works to help alumni participate in meaningful community engagement activities. At present, the committee is researching a broad range of activities alumni might participate in on both local and national levels. Part of the committee’s work also includes understanding the kinds of community engagement activities alumni are already involved in and how the committee might foster community engagement connections between alumni.
Along these lines, the committee is happy to announce the launch of this Community Engagement Web page. A more developed format of the page will appear this spring and will consist of profiles of both students and alumni involved in community engagement, along with updates on the projects investigated by the committee. Community engagement links will also be posted.
The committee encourages you to take a closer look at the page when it is fully launched this spring. We hope the contents will inspire you to share some of your own community engagement efforts with other alumni or perhaps provide you with fresh ideas for new community engagement initiatives in your area. Whatever the case, we are certain the page will remind you of the multiple rewards community engagement yields for all people involved.
The Community Engagement Committee of the LUAA BOD is interested in hearing from you. We know many, many alumni all over the country and the world are involved in volunteer and career based community engagement. We’d love to hear about your activities to help spread alumni news about community engagement and to possibly help you find LU students and grads who might be interested in the kinds of projects you are pursuing.
This committee is co-chaired by Amy Hockenberger Hochkammer '91 and Diane Pellowe '87 and staffed by Jessa Dukelow '02, Assistant Director of Alumni Relations.
