The American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) Academic Innovation and Transformation Monthly Newsletter for January 2022 identified the Center for Democracy and Civic Life's work as an example of how higher education can support civil dialogue in a time of deep divisions:
"Our campuses must model for a society in turmoil what respectful disagreement, civil debate, and peaceful protest can look like. There are many AASCU members who are modeling the way. […] The University of Maryland Baltimore County through its Center for Democracy and Civic Life fosters healthy civic relationships in the campus and community."
