Abstract: Land-grant universities, community colleges, urban institutions, historically black colleges and universities, and private institutions are connecting their campus work with efforts in the community. Although outreach scholarship varies by mission and objectives of the institution, the role of partnering with the community remains an important factor. This discussion will include institutional leaders from several different types of institutions who will discuss the integration of outreach scholarship with the unique institutional missions they represent. They will discuss the balance and tensions that are created as the integration of outreach scholarship with institution missions is achieved.
