Duke Civic Action Plan Executive Summary DUKE CIVIC ACTION PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In March 2016, Campus Compact challenged its member institutions to renew the promise of the public purposes of higher education by creating a Civic Action Plan. Along with the leaders of more than 400 higher education institutions, President Brodhead committed Duke to this worthy endeavor. To formulate the Civic Action Plan, the Duke Office of Civic Engagement (DOCE) convened more than 130 faculty, staff, students and community members to discuss how to strengthen civic engagement at Duke. This process was anchored by the Civic Action Plan Statements (see sidebar on page 3) offered by Campus Compact prompting participants in the process to uncover the strengths, weaknesses and possibilities in Duke’s partnerships with local, national and international “Duke aims to become a model communities. The process has benefited from concurrent initiatives at for integrity, consistency and Duke to formulate a new academic strategic plan and undergraduate reciprocity of partnerships.” curriculum, a parallel that aligns this work with broader institutional — 2017 Together Duke: Advancing planning efforts. Excellence Through Community The Civic Action Plan uses the commonly accepted definition of civic engagement from the American Association of Colleges and Universities (Ehrlich, 2000): “Civic engagement is working to make a difference in the civic life of our communities and developing the combination of knowledge, skills, values and motivation to make that difference. It means promoting the quality of life in a community, through both political and non-political processes. In addition, civic engagement The Civic Action Plan identifies encompasses actions wherein individuals participate in activities of personal and public concern that are both individually life enriching a variety of strategies to and socially beneficial to the community." facilitate Duke’s engagement in sustainable and equitable The priorities for the Duke Civic Action Plan coalesced around five clear partnerships, including increased themes (detailed on pages 9-13 of this report): coordination, communication, • community partnerships and knowledge of practices • coordination • ethics in civic engagement and partnerships across the • faculty and staff support institution and within the • equity and justice issues community. The vision for this plan is captured in the university’s academic strategic plan, Together Duke: Advancing Excellence Through Community, to be “a recognized leader in civic engagement, Duke aims to become a model for integrity, consistency and reciprocity of partnerships.” To accomplish this, the Civic Action Plan identifies a variety of strategies to facilitate Duke’s engagement in sustainable and equitable partnerships, including increased coordination, communication, and knowledge of practices and partnerships across the institution and within the community. 2 INSTITUTIONAL CONTEXT Campus Compact Duke’s commitment to contributing to the broader good and needs of Action Statements the world is reflected in the university’s Strategic Plan 2006: Making a Difference, which highlights the importance of the democratic goals and We empower our students, public purposes of higher education. “Knowledge in service to society” #1 faculty, staff and is featured throughout the document and is considered an enduring theme community partners to co-create for the foundation of research, teaching and civic engagement at Duke. mutually respectful partnerships The 2006 strategic plan committed to creating an “enduring culture of in pursuit of a just, equitable service” and “expanding opportunities for students and faculty to apply knowledge in the service to society.” and sustainable future for communities beyond the campus In 2007, Duke University launched DukeEngage to provide funding – nearby and around the world. and support for select Duke undergraduates to participate in immersive, summer civic engagement opportunities in partnership with communities.

  • The Decline and Revival of Liberal Learning at Duke: the Focus and Gerst Programs
    Acad. Quest. (2007) 20:177–210 DOI 10.1007/s12129-007-9020-z The Decline and Revival of Liberal Learning at Duke: The Focus and Gerst Programs Russell Nieli Published online: 17 November 2007 # Springer Science + Business Media, LLC 2007 Abstract Small programs can make a big difference on college campuses. At Duke University, a few dedicated people, with the support of college administrators, exploited the all-too-evident liabilities of curriculum fragmentation, political correctness, and the lack of direction felt by undergraduate students to create intellectually valuable and stimulating new offerings. Russell Nieli tells how the Gerst and Focus programs have influenced that university and others across America. Keywords Liberal arts education . Duke University . Focus . Gerst . Cohesive curriculum . First-year programs When a student arrives at the university, he finds a bewildering variety of departments and a bewildering variety of courses. And there is no official guidance, no university-wide agreement, about what he should study.... The net effect of the student’s encounter with the college catalogue is bewilderment and very often demoralization. It is just a matter of chance whether he finds one or two professors who can give him an insight into one of the great visions of education that have been the distinguishing part of every civilized nation.... The teacher, particularly the teacher dedicated to liberal education, must constantly try to look toward the goal of human completeness and back at the natures of his students here and now. Attention to the young, knowing what their hungers are and what they can digest, is the essence of the craft.
