Submit an Idea For a Poster

Submit an idea for a poster to display on Civic Engagement Day Wednesday, April 1st

This is a special call for posters representing faculty, staff, and student work related to civic engagement. Civic engagement emphasizes citizenship, democracy, and improved quality of life, and includes activities such as service-learning, voter education and registration, volunteer projects, and community-based learning activities. These activities are characterized by collaborations with the community (local, regional, national, global) designed for the exchange of knowledge and resources that benefit the campus and the community.

Posters will be on display throughout the day from 12:00 pm until 8:00 pm.  Presenters are asked to be present from either 12:00-12:30pm or 6:30-7:00pm to discuss their work with colloquium participants.

Posters may be on poster boards or on a trifold display board. Displayed material could include a syllabus, the description of a course project or requirement, brochures describing the activity, photos or samples of student work. Posters should convey a project summary, goals, activity, and outcomes (including benefits to the campus and to the community).

This is an opportunity to display to our speakers and audience the many ways that UMSL’s faculty, staff, and students are involved in the metropolitan community. We’ll need to document this involvement in the Carnegie Foundation application to be named a community engaged campus. All efforts (well-established or just beginning) are invited to be displayed in posters.

Submit your idea (be brief) for a poster to Megan Hill , AmeriCorps*VISTA.
