DEADLINE FOR PEER REVIEWED PAPERS: JULY 1, 2008 DEADLINE FOR NON-PEER REVIEWED PAPERS: AUGUST 2, 2008
As the nation prepares for a pivotal national election, what role should colleges and universities play in helping students to become politically engaged, motivate them to participate in political activities, and support students’ political learning? Colleges and universities are often involved in promoting community service involvement but much less engaged in preparing students to understand and participate actively in the political process.
In the September 2008 “Back to School” issue, the JCC will publish articles, essays, and program reports that examine the role of colleges and universities in increasing students’ political understanding, motivation, and involvement. Contributions made by individuals researching topics related to these issues or whose institutions are actively involved in political education will be considered.
