 Points of View: The University of Central Oklahoma and the American Democracy Project
At the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO), we have been intrigued about the possibilities of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) civic engagement project, the American Democracy Project, with its broad network of institutions and especially the capacity of that project to contribute to our questions about purpose.
Current public commentary suggests that America’s colleges and universities should be “engines of economic development.” This seems especially compelling in smaller, less economically advantaged states searching for answers to yearly fiscal shortfalls and challenging future forecasts.
We accept the responsibility to be economically involved in our regions but a defining element of our true value to the societies we serve lies in the quality of our graduates and their ability to make substantive contributions to our communities, regions and world.
