The national Campus Compact has just announced the 2012 recipients of the Newman Civic Fellows Award. The state of Montana was well represented in this group of distinguished group of 160 college students across the nation with 7 recipients from our Academic Institutions of higher education here in our home state.
The Newman Civic Fellows Award honors inspiring college student leaders who have demonstrated an investment in finding solutions for challenges facing communities throughout the country. 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 (http://www.compact.org/initiatives/campus-compact-awards-programs/the-frank-newman-leadership-award/, 2012).
