Siena will host \;the first in a series of annual national conferences called the \;High Impact Institute. \;

The \;purpose \;of the High Impact Institute is for each campus to develop a plan \;to \;link \;High Impact Practices \;(AAC&\;U) \;with High Impact Community Engagement Practices \;(Siena/Bonner Foundation).

This institute is a \;partnership between Siena ACE\, the Bonner Foundation\, and AAC&\;U. \;

Eight other campuses \;from around the country will be \;sending teams of 10 \;(composed of faculty\, administrators\, students and community partners) to this Institute.

Each year\, for the next three years\, \;9-12 new colleges will join \;the returning schools for an expanding \;national learning community.

Siena's \;Strategic Plan: Living Our Tradition 2011-2016 \;together with the nationally recognized ACE DEEP service model positioned Siena to be the host/lead institution in this new initiative.
