The follow-up to volume one, this handbook builds on the numerous and varied roles of the mission officer, specifically as they relate to collaboration with those inside and outside the campus. Authors focus on ways for the mission officer to collaborate and animate mission within academics, student and alumni affairs divisions, campus ministry, the greater community, and more. In addition, a section is dedicated to mission accountability, a contemporary issue for every higher education institution looking to renew its accreditation.

Michael Galligan-Stierle, president of the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities (ACCU), has over 40 years of experience in higher education and ministry with young adults, as a campus minister, a religious studies professor, a seminary instructor, and a graduate ministry internship director. Galligan-Stierle’s 1996 book, The Gospel on Campus, is viewed as a standard for Catholic campus ministry in the United States. His book Promising Practices: Collaboration among Catholic Bishops and University Presidents highlights proven ways that bishops, diocesan agencies, and Catholic colleges and universities collaborate. His two books, A Mission Officer Handbook, volumes one and two, profile the many ways that mission officers can advance Catholic identity and university mission. Michael holds a Ph.D. in Sacred Scripture, an M.A. in Psychology, and an M.A. in Theology.
