Dear Colleagues, 3CSN invites you to join us for another exciting series of Civic Dialogues, sponsored by Bringing Theory to Practice, designed to focus greater attention on civic engagement in higher education.  The 6-part series features national experts, scholars, and practitioners sharing and discussing the critical importance of civic engagement along with educational practices and models for increasing meaningful engagement on campuses.     By participating in this series, you will:   1. Advance understanding of the intersection between equity, agency and civic engagement to promote the public good. 2.
