"Through
service
,
research
, and
advocacy
, Newman Civic Fellows are making the most of their college experiences to
better understand themselves
, the
root causes of social issues
, and
effective mechanisms for creating lasting change
. These students represent the next generation of public problem solvers and civic leaders. They serve as national examples of the role that higher education can—and does—play in building a better world." -Campus Compact
As a Kansas Campus Compact member, KU nominates one student per year to be a Newman Civic Fellow. As a Fellow, that student is able to connect with the national network of Fellows and attend conferences and events. Connections among Fellows are supported by Campus Compact as a way to inspire and motivate students' continued civic efforts.
We are currently accepting nominations for this year's
KU Newman Civic Fellow program-
