On January 20-21, 2015 the Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership<\/a> hosted the 7th<\/sup> annual NYMAPS Collaborative<\/a> Symposium. Entitled \u2018Engaged Scholarship: Fulfilling the Promise of the Public University\u2019, the symposium raised the challenges and possibilities of engaged scholarship,\u00a0practiced with a\u00a0commitment to solidarity, in which communities traditionally\u00a0researched\u00a0<\/em>and spoken\u00a0for<\/em>, collaborate in\u00a0academic research to ask their own questions, challenge inequalities, and engage the struggle for a\u00a0more just world. The symposium offered opportunities to learn about traditional and non-traditional data driven projects, and time for symposium participants to workshop projects with the broader group, while receiving guidance from keynote presenters Michelle Fine<\/a> and Mar\u00eda Elena Torre<\/a>.<\/p>\n
