Kyle Patrick Williams

Kyle Williams is currently serving as the AmeriCorps VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America) Leader for the Kentucky Campus Compact project at Northern Kentucky University, where he has integrated his Master’s research into his role. William’s research study, “Strengthening Citizenship through Service Learning in Kentucky Higher Education,” will poll student attitudes about citizenship and service learning and determine how programs designed to strengthen citizenship through service learning could be integrated into course curriculum. The population for the online study will be post-secondary students at member institutions of the Kentucky Campus Compact, which are colleges and universities seeking to connect with their surrounding communities. Williams hopes to propose a program design that can be replicated at other universities across the U.S. by AmeriCorps VISTA members.
