Civic engagement is one of Illinois State University’s core values, and faculty and support-staff members work to ensure that engagement is an intentional part of the learning process in and out of the classroom. Faculty and staff provide curricular, co-curricular and extracurricular experiences that allow students to enhance the entire campus community and the greater community at large. This effort makes students a true partner in campus governance and community leadership.
