Campus Compact Awards Programs

Thomas Ehrlich Civically Engaged Faculty Award - recognizes one faculty member each year for exemplary engaged scholarship, including leadership in advancing students' civic learning, conducting community-based research, fostering reciprocal community partnerships, building institutional commitments to service-learning and civic engagement, and other means of enhancing higher education's contributions to the public good.

Campus Compact is such a wonderful force for progress in academic service-learning. I really think that we would be nowhere near where we are today in higher education without your efforts
Janet Eyler, 2003 Ehrlich Award recipient

Swearer Student Humanitarian Award - recognizes five students each year for their outstanding public service and provides financial support toward their continued efforts to address societal needs.

The Swearer Award has provided me with such an incredible venue for advocacy. At Penn, I've had the chance to speak to faculty, students, and alumni… who are interested more than ever in supporting the civic mission of higher education.
Mei Elansary, 2003 Swearer Award recipient

Frank Newman Leadership Award - recognizes students with financial need and civic leadership potential and provides both financial support and mentorship to help them achieve their academic and civic goals.

The most important thing an institution does is to prepare a student not for a career, but for a life as a citizen.
Frank Newman
