SU Engaging Seattle *2016-’17 Data
Student Leadership& Co-curricular Service • Student Opportunities Include: • Shinnyo Fellows (Capstone Projects) • Serve Local Ambassadors • K-12 Student Leads (Paid with Federal Work-Study Funds) • Jumpstart (National Program) • Family Engagement Programs • Just Serve Student Club • Service-Learning Students • Volunteer Opportunities on ConnectSU
Our Challenge We don’t know what Seattle U students who aren’t involved with Seattle University Youth Initiative think or feel about it.
Our Questions • What do they think about the Serve Local campaign? • What are barriers and motivations to participation in place-based community engagement at Seattle University? • What do they think about the Youth Initiative? • What do they know? What do they want to know? • How can CCE staff reach SU students using technology and social media? • What would an effective digital strategy look like?
