Meyer Selected for Campus Compact’s National Policy Strategy Council

As part of Campus Compact’s policy strategy council, Micki Meyer will collaborate with fellow council members to identify policy priorities, strengthen support for civic and community engagement, and advocate for expanded federal investment in these important areas. This appointment represents an exciting opportunity for both Meyer and Rollins to contribute to national conversations about the public purpose of higher education and the vital role colleges and universities play in strengthening communities.

At Rollins, Meyer’s involvement in this national effort builds on more than two decades of work connecting students with their communities. As the College’s Lord Family assistant vice president of student affairs for engagement and dean of Rollins Gateway, she has helped strengthen service-learning opportunities across campus, from SPARC Day, which introduces incoming students to the importance of service, to community engagement (CE) courses that pair classroom learning with hands-on work at nonprofit organizations.

Campus Compact is a national nonprofit organization and the largest and oldest higher-education association dedicated to civic and community engagement. Through a network of colleges and universities, the organization brings together higher-education leaders, faculty, researchers, students, and community engagement professionals to advance the public purpose of higher education. Campus Compact supports institutions through professional development, research, convenings, and collaborative networks, empowering them to partner with communities to address complex social issues, advance equity and justice, and build a more accessible, equitable, and prosperous society.
