The Engaged University Today

Graham B. Spanier, President, The Pennsylvania State University

Five years after the seminal report Returning to Our Roots: The Engaged Institution was published, this panel will reconsider assessing the impact of the recommendations in this report sponsored by the Kellogg Commission on the Future of State and Land-Grant Universities. How far have we come toward the vision of the engaged institution? What are institutions doing to implement the vision both organizationally and programmatically? Can universities maintain a dynamic engagement agenda in light of shifting public support? What are the major challenges impacting the achievement of the engaged institution?
