Area of Engagement: Civic Engagement (CE)

Why do Simpson students study Civic Engagement?

Civic engagement encompasses citizenship and the rights one gains as a community member. These include, at a minimum: civil liberties, civil rights, and the opportunity and right to participate in the construction of that community through voting, civic conversation, and other forms of participation. Civic engagement involves the values, duties, skills, and responsibilities that are part of positively shaping our communities. It is important to recognize that we are all both shaped by and shapers of the communities of which we are part.
