Think of the College of Public Programs as a creative commons where
faculty, students, practitioners and community members come together to
address critical social issues. Through the exchange of ideas, new
approaches to time-worn problems and fresh approaches to new problems
arise. |

A group of seven students from Arizona State University's College of Public Programs are using new media in unique and creative ways to recruit students, as part of the Student Ambassador for Recruitment, or StAR, program. |
Debra Friedman welcome message cont.
This year we will pay special attention to a new problem -- the critical shortage of talent in public, social, and nonprofit sectors. Government agencies and nonprofit organizations face a meager pool of qualified recruits for the large number of vacancies that will become available through government expansion and the impending retirement of executives and senior administrators from the “baby boom” generation. We will offer new ways to attract talent, and innovative ways to educate in the face of growing complexity and need.
The College is a magnet for those students who care deeply enough about repairing the world to become educated and practiced in order to do so. Please join us!
Cordially,
Debra Friedman,
Dean
College of Public Programs
