Elm Street Spotlight
July 23, 2010
Under the Elm Street Program, the community has come together to create a new Town and Gown initiative called the Indiana Community University Collaborative (the ICUC) that is made up of community and university stakeholders as well as students, borough officials and residents. This organization meets bimonthly and is doing some great things for the community. This wide range of local stakeholders comes together with a mission to recognize, mobilize, and celebrate student residents as local community assets and promote their development as community members. The ICUC Neighborhood Ambassadors Program is designed to foster leadership development, especially servant leadership, while also enhancing the student community relationships. The program provides student to student education regarding community expectations for off-campus conduct and increased sensitivity to residents' concerns.
