The vocation of citizenship encourages individuals to actively engage in their communities, prioritizing the well-being of the collective. By addressing shared challenges, citizens contribute to the common good and help shape a more inclusive and sustainable future.
In this upcoming webinar, we will hear from (pictured above from left) Michelle Hayford of NC State University, Christine Jeske of Wheaton College, and Meghan Slining of Furman University. Each contributed to NetVUE’s Scholarly Resources Project publication Called Beyond Ourselves: Vocation and the Common Good. They will share how advocacy for justice, overturning markets and meritocracy, and caring for public health relate to the calling of citizenship for the common good. The webinar will be hosted by Rachel Pickett, NetVUE webinar coordinator. In addition to participating in a thoughtful discussion, you may discover ways to use the material in your work with undergraduate students, advisees, and colleagues.
We will gather on Tuesday, March 25th, at 4:00 p.m. Eastern (3:00 Central, 2:00 Mountain, 1:00 Pacific). The webinar is open to anyone at a NetVUE member institution at no cost, but registration is required. To register, follow this link.
Please share this information with your colleagues. We hope that you will consider using the webinar as a springboard for further campus conversations that are tailored to your own context.
