Who We Are
Maine Campus Compact is a coalition of 18 member campuses whose purpose is to catalyze and lead a movement to reinvigorate the public purposes and civic mission of higher education. We seek to transform our campuses in ways that develop better informed, active citizen problem-solvers, stronger communities, and a more just democratic society. We believe that our campuses must be vital agents and architects of a flourishing democracy.
What We Do
We work with our member campuses to:
- Improve the quality of education by developing academic and co-curricular practices that cultivate the skills and habits of citizen problem-solving in our students;
- Engage faculty in community-based teaching and scholarship focused on societal concerns;
- Develop collaborative partnerships among campuses and communities; and
- Advance leadership throughout the state in addressing critical issues and strengthening democracy.
