I interpret being a responsible citizen as one who helps assure that the community that they are living in continue to progress for the good of all or the majority involved. However, this is only limited to actions and decisions wherein there is an unanimous agreement or that those who aren't for it aren't necessarily opposed to it either. For example, if all of the the community agrees to ban gay marriage, then it should be banned or not recognized for that area. However, if there are those who oppose, then it is not considered progress for the community as not everyone agrees on it.
Should colleges and universities teach students about being a good citizen? I am on the side for them being allowed to do so but not mandated by the state or country to do so. This however assumes that there is a similar college nearby with the same level of education which provides the other option, which allows students the ability to choose. In the case where this situation doesn't exist, then i feel that colleges that want to teach about proper citizenship should at least give the option to students to opt out of the program.
