The move reflects the center\u2019s focus on connections with community partners.<\/h2>\n

\"WordmarkThe Rochester Center for Community Leadership<\/a> at the Ä¢¹½´«Ã½<\/a> is changing its name to the Center for Community Engagement, effective November 16. The new name more accurately describes the focus of the center, which is housed in the College\u2019s Office of the Dean of Students<\/a> in Lattimore Hall.<\/p>\n

The center, which is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, connects community partners with students, faculty, and other members of the University community to work together on initiatives that address social challenges in the city and region.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe new name reflects the center\u2019s evolution over the past 15 years from a grand vision to a complex operation with a wide array of initiatives,\u201d says center director and assistant dean Glenn Cerosaletti \u201991, \u201903 (MA). \u201cSo many have contributed to that growth, from the center\u2019s founder, (former dean of students) Jody Asbury, to current and former staff, students, alumni, donors, faculty, and community partners.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since 2013, the center has been instrumental in the development of the College\u2019s community-engaged learning initiative and administers the certificate of achievement in community-engaged learning. In addition, the center manages a portfolio of\u00a0programs that create a pipeline of community-engagement opportunities that spans from when undergraduate students first arrive at the University until after they graduate.\u00a0These programs include Wilson Days of Engagement<\/a>, Rochester Youth Year<\/a>, Urban Fellows<\/a>, and the Learning and Exploring at Play<\/a> (LEAP) program that connects students from the College with elementary school students in the Rochester City School District.<\/p>\n

In 2018\u201319, Cerosaletti\u00a0cochaired the work group that compiled the University\u2019s successful application<\/a> for the Carnegie Foundation\u2019s elective classification in community engagement. The application was a self-study that inventoried community engagement efforts across the University with reference to best practices in the field of community engagement in post-secondary education.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
