- Promote the higher education message in the local community.
- Assist with recruiting new HHE members.
- Help promote and attend the annual legislative briefing/faculty forum in their community.
- Contact local legislators with information about IU issues at the Statehouse.
- Monitor local media for stories about higher education. Forward copies to the HHE office in Bloomington.
- Attend HHE legislative visit days at the Statehouse.
In addition, Community Captains are invited to attend occasional special receptions and legislative briefings.
