"What's Your Story: Young People Take on The
Challenges of Civic Life."

 

During the 2005-2006 academic year, student filmmakers from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee followed four Wisconsin Campus Compact Fellows as they undertook projects that engaged the local community. In the spring of 2006, the Fellows met at Wingspread to talk about their experiences and discuss the challenges of civic life. The Foundation initiated, funded and directed this project.

The four documentaries and the Wingspread discussion are available for download below. They are also available in a DVD. A discussion guide is also included to help start conversations about students’ attitudes and perceptions regarding service, politics and citizenship.
