Campus Progress, part of the Center for American Progress, works to strengthen progressive voices on college and university campuses and to empower new progressive leaders nationwide. Through an on-line magazine and student publications, public events, and grassroots issue campaigns, Campus Progress supports young advocates, activists, journalists, and artists as they develop fresh ideas and perspectives and seek to communicate in new ways.



Campus Progress is working to see that the next generation of progressive leaders is better trained, better informed, more diverse, and more united than any generation before. We’re helping to build a strong progressive movement by connecting young people across the divides of region, background, and issue interests, and working to keep them connected over time.



While some portray U.S. campuses as bastions of liberalism, 30 years of heavily-funded conservative organizing has made its mark, and the future is up for grabs. Campus Progress is helping young progressives come together, win the battle of ideas, and turn their ideas into action.



Campus Progress primarily organizes at colleges and universities—where many young people are concentrated and easier to reach—but we intend our work to be accessible and useful to everyone. Even if you’re not a college student, or a young person at all, or even if you don’t share our views, we hope you’ll stick around this website. There’s plenty of news, debate, and controversy, great writing, and eye-opening multimedia. Look around, create your own blog, pitch us a story, post your comments.
