Bridging Gaps: Perspectives on Economic Realities, Educational Equity, and Civic Engagement 9:40 - 10:30 am | undergraduate panel session I Bertolon Central Classroom Building room 243

This presentation will highlight a campus initiative that seeks to bridge the gap between student athletes and civic engagement. By conducting research, including in the form of opinion polls, I gathered data on Salem State student athletes and created a 10-year plan to encourage their civic engagement. This project has been endorsed and supported by the Center for Civic Engagement, the Institute Of Politics, and The Team and will be used as a template and example to implement in all NCAA institutions.
