A brief description of the policies and procedures that ensure community stakeholder engagement is applied systematically and regularly across the institution’s activities:
Board of Trustees Local Community Membership. The University of Dayton’s governing Code of Regulations ensures that community stakeholders are participants in university governance, strategy, and operations. The Code (Article V Section 5) stipulates that at least 20% of the total number of Trustees, including ex officio voting Trustees, shall represent involvement in the Greater Dayton community. “Greater Dayton” means the eight-county area consisting of Montgomery, Greene, Miami, Clarke, Darke, Warren, Butler, and Preble counties. https://www.udayton.edu/legalaffairs/governingdocs/code-of-regulations-page.php
Fitz Center Mission Statement provides a framework for stakeholder engagement. The Fitz Center for Leadership in Community initiates and sustains partnerships within urban neighborhoods and larger communities that both support comprehensive community building and provide a context for broadly connected learning and scholarship. The agenda of the Fitz Center for Leadership in Community, the University’s lead community engagement organization, is determined entirely on the basis of the leadership challenges facing the community partners. Twenty-five nonprofit and local government partners participate in one or more of the Fitz Center’s leadership programs: Semester of Service, Dayton Civic Scholars, Graduate Community Fellows, Neighborhood School Centers, and/or Rivers Institute and River Stewards. All contribute to monthly or quarterly face-to-face discussions of emerging community challenges and the University’s current and desired role in addressing the challenges.
