Campus Champion

Sophomore Honors Student Mackenzie Carroll is ‘learning by doing’ at her job at the Barbara A. Galpin ’68, M ’74 Institute of Civic Engagement. Last fall Mackenzie met a challenge by Director and Service-Learning Coordinator John Suarez — use her love for dance to demonstrate the importance of active listening. The musical theatre major passed the test and was key in educating fellow Red Dragons to become involved in the fall elections. Mackenzie will continue to inspire and inform using deliberative dialog to identify different ways policy could be addressed to make politics less divisive. She’ll unveil this three-part project, “A House Divided,” in the spring semester.
