From: Smith, JohnTo: Hood, Carra; Cooke, OliverCc: Colon, MerydawildaSubject: 2020 Engagement Committee Response to EI Initiative ProposalDate: Monday, November 16, 2015 3:03:06 PMAttachments: image001.jpg
Carra and Oliver, Thank you for meeting with the 2020 Engagement Committee on Friday. Its clear we could have spent another hour discussing the merits of and necessity for the EI initiative. Following the committees deliberations on your proposal, Awilda and I convey below some recommended amendments to your proposal so that we may advance the proposal to the 2020 Steering Committee with greater confidence it will be supported. Please contact Awilda or myself with questions.
1. Identify two to three outcomes you are seeking for the EI initiative through June 2016. Include specific assessments for the outcomes. Note: The overarching purpose and stated outcomes for the EI initiative are well stated, with no particular timeframe given. It is important to state specific outcomes for the 2020 funding period and related assessments, so the 2020 Steering Committee has markers by which to judge program accomplishments within the funding period. You may find it beneficial to consult with Sonia Gonsalves on the development of assessments for 2015-16 year.
2. Consider asking for 2020 Engagement funding for the 2016-17 academic year. Second year funding will be contingent on validating year one outcomes were met through stated assessment measures.
Please submit your amended proposal by Monday November 23, 2015. Cordially,John Smith *****************John SmithAssistant to the ProvostStockton University101 Vera King Farris DriveGalloway, NJ 08205-9441P - [email protected] University

2020 Initiative Proposal Revised
Strategic Theme Engagement/Learning
Project Title Stockton University Economic Inequality Initiative
Start September 1, 2015
End August 30, 2017
Project Partners
Oliver Cooke (ECON), co-Chair and AASCU Economic Inequality Initiative Scholar Carra Leah Hood (Asst. Provost), co-Chair and AASCU Economic Inequality Initiative Advisory
Council member
James Avery (POLS) Michael Busler (BSNS) Tait Chirenje (ENVL) Merydawilda Colon (SCCE) Dan Douglas (Hughes Center) Diane Falk Patricia Fazio (LIBR) Dennis Furgione (IR) Ellen Mutari (ECON) Rose Scaffidi (NURS) Kelly Sloane (Hughes Center) Emily Van Duyne (GENS) Dawn Watkins (SOBL)
Background and Purpose
In September 2014, the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) announced its
three-year Economic Inequality Initiative (EI). Oliver Cooke and I completed an application for Stockton
to participate in the Initiative, as both of us felt a commitment to the Initiative goals. Our application was
successful, and AASCU invited Stockton to join its EI Organizing Team. In addition, during the spring
semester 2015, AASCU invited Oliver Cooke to become an EI Scholar and Carra Hood to join the EI
Advisory Council. For more information about the AASCU Initiative, please visit the Initiatives website:
http://www.aascu.org/programs/adp/EconomicInequality/.
The primary goal of AASCUs EI Initiative is to raise awareness and to increase knowledge about the
effects and consequences of economic inequality. Participating institutions take up that goal and create a
variety of opportunities for the institution and, if possible, neighboring community to benefit from the
learning experiences that grow out of the Initiative.
In January 2015, the AASCU EI Organizing Team met in Washington, D.C., and for a week, mapped out
an initial plan for the national Initiative and for EI activities on each campus. Oliver and I returned to
Stockton after that meeting and convened Stocktons EI Initiative Team. During the spring semester 2015,
the Stockton Team met a number of times to discuss its goals, assessment plans, and EI-related activities
for the upcoming academic year.

The AASCU EI Advisory Council and the EI Scholars group had a number of conference calls during the
spring semester 2015. Both groups and the AASCU Organizing Team also met during the 2015 AASCU
American Democracy Project Annual Meeting in New Orleans. At its meetings, the EI Advisory Board
discussed ways to facilitate and administer collaborations between institutions, and the EI Scholars group
worked on its design for a modular, hybrid, college-level course on economic inequality. In preparation
for the meeting, each participating institution completed an annual report, a yearly requirement; AASCU
collected the information from the annual reports and presented it at the Organizing Team meeting. Both
groups plan to continue meeting virtually and face-to-face throughout the Initiative period.
In addition to future planning, the Stockton EI Initiative Team began work on the following activities last
spring:
Created a blog (https://eistockton.wordpress.com/) and, Team members collaborate to post articles on the topic of economic inequality and links to pertinent publications. One Stockton
Team member created a Facebook page for the AASCU EI Initiative
(https://www.facebook.com/pages/ADP-and-TDC-Economic-Inequality-
Initiative/1422391164750883) and forwards selected posts from the Stockton blog to the
Facebook page.
Worked with the William J. Hughes Center to design a poll on economic inequality in New Jersey, which will be administered early in the fall semester 2015. In May 2015, Kelly Sloane, a
public policy researcher for the Hughes Center, produced an informational report, Economic
Indicators and Quality of Life in Southern New Jersey, which will serve to contextualize the poll
results
(http://intraweb.stockton.edu/eyos/hughescenter/content/docs/Research/Eco%20Indicators%20-
%202015-0512.pdf).
Drafted a survey (that includes questions capturing both factual knowledge and perceptions) to facilitate assessment of the Initiatives success at raising awareness and increasing knowledge
about the effects and consequences of economic inequality. The survey will be administered at EI
events to gauge the level of pre and post event audience knowledge and opinions about economic
inequality.
As noted during the EI kick-off which took place on September 28th 2015, there are several other EI
Initiative projects in various stages of planning. These projects will involve collaborations with both
internal (to Stockton) and, when possible, external groups, programs, and organizations.

recent publication Our Kids)
Stocktons EI Team applied for and was awarded a mini-grant ($1,000.00) from AASCU
and Weber State University.
Purpose of this Proposal
Although AASCU launched the EI Initiative and provides the Initiative with a national platform, AASCU
does not provide funding support for activities at participating institutions and only a small amount to
fund travel and accommodations to conferences or face-to-face meetings. That means that each institution
must do so from its own funds. Institutional budgets, appropriations, providing for students, and previous
financial commitments can limit individual campus EI plans, as a result.
Many of the EI events planned for the upcoming academic year at Stockton do not require additional
funding, as they might occur in the context of a course (for instance, a lesson or series of lessons on
depiction of economic inequality in the first-year reader) or they could become connected to the EI
Initiative after having already been planned.
However, some events and activities will require additional funding. Oliver and I are requesting that
funding with this application.

Outcomes and Assessments
In addition to our participation in AASCUs EI Initiative assessment plan and in addition to contributing
to the outcomes AASCU has identified for the EI Initiative, Oliver and I aim to do the following:
1. Write an annual report, chronicling the EI Initiative activities that took place during the academic year.
2. Share the annual report with the entire Stockton community. 3. Stocktons EI Initiative website and blog both track hits and traffic; Oliver and I will analyze the
traffic and include our analysis in the annual report.
4. Collect, analyze, and report survey results to the Stockton community. 5. At the end of each year, we will convene faculty and student focus groups.
AASCU has set some of the goals for the EI Initiative. The plan for measuring the success of the Initiative
at Stockton is outlined below. All data collected and analyzed will be reported to AASCU and to the
Stockton Community in EI annual reports.

Early Impact
Though Stocktons Economic Inequality Initiative was just recently launched, its impact on the campus
and wider community is already apparent. Here, we describe a few examples that speak to the initiatives
early influence on Stockton and external community members.
The Economic Inequality Kickoff Event
This event (on September 28th) formally lunched Stocktons EI Initiative. The event included
presentations (by five Stockton faculty members and administrators) and a panel discussion of various
EIrelated themes, a short film viewing (of Robert Reichs, Inequality for All, and an audience Q&A
session. Approximately 60 individuals attended the event. Following the event, one of Dr. Linda
Whartons students who attended the event wrote an extra credit reflection piece on her experience at the
kickoff. The final paragraph of her reflection essay read:
Without a doubt I considered this event worthwhile. Even though it aroused feelings
of sadness and defeat after learning about our economy in Atlantic County, I feel like
I gained a lot from it. I think the first step to changing something is knowledge and
education. Having economic and governmental knowledge I can now make better
decisions (for example when it comes to voting in state or national elections).
Knowledge is power. On top of that I can share the knowledge that I gained with
somebody else. After leaving the event, my boyfriend and I actually had a long
discussion about what was covered in the presentation. We shared our views regarding
-
the economic situation in Atlantic County and United States in general. It really made
us think more about what goes on in the country and we are considering taking part in
this Economic Inequality Initiative here at Stockton.
Another student who is taking Daniel Tomes service learning courseGEN 2646, Tools for Social
Changerecently contacted Dr. Cooke after attending the kickoff event. He (along with a fellow
classmate) has decided to focus his semester long (course-required) project on the issue of economic
inequality. Dr. Cooke has met with these students and they are now finalizing their EI-themed project.
The Economic Inequality Wall
This wall, located in F-Wing outside the library, was the brainchild of Dr. Hood. The EI Wall (which
opened on the first day of the Fall 2015 semester) prompts passersby to share their thoughts and feelings
about economic inequality. Any stroll by the EI Wall provides ample evidence of the significant impact
and engagement this low-cost EI-initiative has engendered to date. The wall is chock full of more than
one hundred post-it-notes. Several notes have generated extensive debates (and back-and-forths) that
underscore the complexity and intensity of the modern debate over economic inequality.
ARTV 3271 Graphic Design II Economic Inequality Poster Project
As highlight during the EI Kickoff event, Dr. Michael McGarveys ARTV 3271 Graphic Design II class
spent the opening weeks of the Fall 2015 semester engaged in a multi-week EI module in which students
discussed, read about, and researched economic inequality. Students were eventually tasked with creating
original economic inequality-themed posters. These remarkable posterswhich were exhibited during the
EI Kickoff eventare now on public display in F-Wing near the EI Wall. Prior to the kickoff event, Dr.
Cooke visited Dr. McGarveys class and engaged students in a wide-ranging discussion of economic
inequality centered on their poster projects. This initiative was set in motion and planned last summer by
Drs. Cooke and McGarvey.
Equitable and Inclusive Economic Development Symposium
Stockton recently co-hosted (with the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia) this symposium at the
Carnegie Center in Atlantic City (October 20, 2015). The symposium brought together a diverse range of
individualsacademics, economic development practitioners, and community membersinvolved in
urban redevelopment efforts in Atlantic City and beyond to discuss and debate best practices and
emergent models of urban redevelopment. Approximately 60 individuals attended this event which was
underwritten by the Federal Reserve Bank. Early feedback from attendees suggests they found the
symposium interesting and engaging.
While these examples provide early glimpses of the Initiatives wider impacts on campus, the EI Team is
confident the Initiative will foster much more impact over the coming semesters. Indeed, there are several
more EI-related projects in the planning stages this fall. Importantly, however, the Team recognizes that
some of the Initiatives impacts will not be quantitatively measurable. While the EI Team is cognizant of
the need to demonstrate and document the Initiatives wider and broader impacts, it also believes that the
some of the most important long-lived effects of such large-scale, multi-dimensional initiativeswhose
overarching aim is to raise awareness, discourse, and civic engagementare not easily quantified. How
does one capture heated dorm-room conversations about economic inequality between students who
attended an EI-related event? How does one measure the impact such an initiative might have on a
students future career choice? To capture this kind of impact, focus groups conducted at the end of the
Initiative pilot will provide meaningful and relevant qualitative data.

To view some pictures of students post-its to the EI Wall and posters from an EI class project, please see
the appended pictures. For a list of the Stockton and external community members who attended the
Philadelphia Federal Reserve sponsored event, please see the appended spreadsheet.
After Year Two
After the initial year, we plan to seek funding from the Presidents Opportunity/Initiatives Fund to
support continuation of the initiative. As the EI Initiative grows and the number of community partners
increases, the EI Initiative will be in a position to partner with external agencies, organizations, and
schools to collaborate on efforts to secure additional funding. One small instance of this occurred on
October 20, 2015: the Philadelphia Federal Reserve covered the catering costs and provided its own web-
based platform to send out invitations and to facilitate the pre-registration process. The EI-related
photography exhibit at the Arts Garage in the fall 2016 may generate outside support; Denise McGarvey
and Oliver Cooke are working on ways to reach out to potential supporters.
