Colorado State Named a Carnegie Community Engagement University

Posted Thursday, October 1, 2009

Colorado State University's reputation for outreach and community partnerships has earned it a label as a Carnegie Community Engagement university.

A Carnegie Community Engagement University is one that encourages collaboration between the institution and the larger communities "for the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources in a context of partnership and reciprocity," according to the organization. In Colorado State's case, engagement includes curricular engagement as well as outreach and partnerships.

CSU is one of 119 organizations recognized as a Community Engagement university in 2008.

"Credit for this honor goes to our faculty and staff who have embraced the land-grant university mission of engaging campus and the surrounding community for the benefit of the state, nation and globe," said Tony Frank, president of Colorado State. "The value of community partners in creating an educated community is critical to our land-grant mission of improving lives though research."
