NYCC Friends,

Its a difficult moment for those of us who are New Yorkers living welloutside of the destructive path that Hurricane Sandy took earlier this week.

There is a strong impulse in all of us to DO something. Well, you can.

Donate money and blood to the Red Cross. Over 100 blood drives were

canceled in the New York Metropolitan area last week due to the storm.

Blood supplies are reported to be very low. Equally as important, take the

money you would spend on gas and travel to help out in New York City

and donate it to the Red Cross. I have included several links below. All are

great ways to stay in touch with recovery efforts.

www.paccompact.org/readycampus --Ready Campus is designed to provide allcolleges and universities a flexible, adaptable planning guide to prepare their own

campuses for emergencies and, just as importantly, to become valuable resources to serve

their communities.

Finally, lets continue to keep our friends in the wider NY Metropolitan

Area in our thoughts as they continue their process of recovery.

Best wishes to all of you,

Laurie

Conducted each year since 1986, the survey is the most comprehensive and widely distributed review of service,service-learning, and civic engagement in higher education. Through this instrument, Campus Compact is able tocalculate student and faculty involvement in service and service-learning, measure campus infrastructure for communityengagement, understand faculty roles and rewards, determine alumni engagement, and assess satisfaction withCampus Compact programs and services.

The results allow campuses to compare their progress with state and national trends and help all of us better articulateour case to elected officials, funders, and to the media. Your participation is key because it helps assure that yourinstitution's commitment and resources dedicated to service-learning and civic engagement are reflected in all our data.

The deadline for completion of the survey is Friday, December 14, 2012. Everyone who completes the survey beforethe deadline will receive a New York Campus Compact mug as a thank you gift.

Dr. Barbara Holland, Higher Education Researcherand Consultant; affiliations with University ofSydney, Indiana University-Purdue UniversityIndianapolis and Portland State University

Join Dr. Barbara Holland in a presentation anddiscussion about strategies for measuringcommunity impact. She will share a variety ofapproaches for getting started with the developmentof community impact measures including importantfactors to consider in planning and implementation.This is a great offering for those interested indeveloping a focused impact assessment.

REGISTERNOW!

On Saturday November 10th from 8:45 am to noon in the BCC Student Center cafeteria, the college will hold a publicdeliberation on the possible roles Higher Education can play in shaping the nations future. Three approaches will beconsidered including: staying competitive in the global economy; working together to repair an ailing society; and

ensuring that everyone gets a fair chance to access higher education. A two page summary of the longer 12 pageissues booklet will be made available on request and a short starter video will be shown at the beginning o f thesession. The participants will then be broken into small groups of 10-15. Using both a moderator/recorder, each groupwill then deliberate the three approaches looking at strengths and weaknesses of each as well as the trade -offs. Atthe conclusion of the deliberation participants will be asked to fill out a questionnaire which will then be returned to theKettering Foundation where they will be analyzed and a summary will be published later next year.

The non-partisan National Issues Forums Institute in conjunction with the non-partisan Kettering Foundation and theAmerican Commonwealth Project will be promoting hundreds of community deliberations across the nation on this vitaltopic over the next six months. All three organizations feel strongly that to improve our democracy, it is vital to engagecitizens in public deliberation tackling the great issues of the day and the role of Higher Education is one such issue.

A second feature of the November 10th event will be a three hour moderator training workshop designed expressly for

college students (1-4pm). The expectation is that students, after experiencing the public deliberation and then the threehour moderator training can return to their campuses and work with faculty/staff to host both an on-campus forum aswell promote public deliberations in the community on this important issue. A light lunch will be provided for students. Itis hoped that a college wishing to send students to this event, would contact Broome Community College prior to theevent for a head count. For students traveling some distance an effort will be made to secure overnightaccommodations for Friday. Faculty and staff are also encouraged to attend both the deliberation and the moderatortraining. Copies of issue booklet, a two page summary, a video, a moderator training guide and the questionnaire can bedownloaded at no charge by going to the nifi.org website and looking under the education header.

For additional information please contact Lisa Strahley, Democracy Commitment coordinator, at 607-778-5094 or email
