Clayton State Selected as a Lead Institution
In Civic Learning Leadership National Initiative
Attorney General Olens and Former
Governor Barnes To Highlight Clayton
State’s Annual Constitution Week
Clayton State University has been select-
ed by NASPA -- Student Affairs
Administrators in Higher Education, as
one of the lead institutions participating in
a national initiative on civic learning and
democratic engagement.
As a member of the Civic Learning and
Democratic
Engagement
Network
(CLDE), a group of higher education-
related institutions that have come togeth-
er with the goal of promoting engagement
among college students, NASPA has
made a commitment to encourage and
highlight the work of student affairs in
making civic learning and democratic
engagement a part of every student’s col-
lege education… much in the same fash-
ion as Clayton State has done through its
Strategic Plan. Clayton State’s commit-
ment as a lead institution will run through
December 2013.
“This is a great opportunity to showcase
Clayton State University and our commit-
ment to student engagement,” says Vice
President of Student Affairs Dr. Brian
Haynes.
As a lead institution in the Civic Learning
Leadership, Clayton State’s commitments
to the initiative over the next year-and-a-
half will include;
* Initiating strategies to work in partner-
ship with groups on and off campus to
influence students’ ongoing commitment
to civic learning and democratic engage-
ment.
* Include clear and tangible civic learning
and democratic engagement activities in
your strategic goals and learning out-
comes (something Clayton State is
already doing, though its Strategic Plan,
which includes as one of its goals “Foster
learning that engages students, faculty,
staff, alumni, and the greater communi-
ty.”)
* Establish a one-year timeline for goal
achievements supporting civic learning
and democratic engagement.
* Share broadly through NASPA Clayton
State’s efforts and evaluations in order to
serve as a model for colleagues.
* Work with students as co-leaders and
facilitators of dialogues and programs.
* Create strategies in collaboration with
students that increase civic learning and
Georgia Attorney General Samuel S.
Olens and former Georgia Governor Roy
Barnes will be visiting Clayton State
University as the highlight of the
University’s annual Constitution Week,
Monday Sept. 17 through Thursday, Sept.
20.
Olens and Barnes will be appearing on the
Clayton State main campus in Morrow on
Sept. 20, leading a discussion of constitu-
tional challenges in the 21st Century. The
event will take place from 12:45 p.m. to 2
p.m. in room UC272 of the James M.
Baker University Center.
Also on the schedule for Constitution
Week will be a voter registration drive
from Monday through Thursday, from 11
a.m. to 1 p.m. each day, on Main Street on
the second floor of the Baker Center. The
voter registration drive will take place
along with voting for Clayton State
Student Government Association Senate
and a mock presidential election.
Also in conjunction with Clayton State's
Constitution Week will be the on-going
display at The National Archives at
Atlanta. "The Lost Mural" is a recreation
by Andrew Sabori of a mural that hung at
Ellis Island. The original mural, commis-
sioned by the WPA in 1938 and painted by
Edward Laning, was displayed at Ellis
Island until the early 1950s at which time
a storm destroyed most of the mural. In
2003 Sabori, an artist and muralist, visited
Ellis Island to find out more information
