Newman Civic Fellowship

Description

The Newman Civic Fellowship is a year-long program that recognizes and supports student public problem solvers at Campus Compact member institutions. Fellows are nominated by their president or chancellor based on their potential for public leadership and their work with communities. Throughout the fellowship year, Campus Compact provides students with opportunities to nurture their assets and help them develop strategies for social change, creating a network of connected and engaged student leaders who can support one another in making positive change. Student nominees must be currently enrolled in a graduate or undergraduate program at their institution, with preference for undergraduate students. Students must have at least one year of their education remaining (either at their current institution or at a different one) at the date of nomination so that they are enrolled as a student for the full duration of their fellowship (September '25 to May '26). Students must commit to providing a short reflection piece to Campus Compact during their fellowship year and commit to being present and fully engage in offered fellowship activities. Please visit the fellowship's website for more information.
