The Thomas Ehrlich Civically Engaged Faculty Award

About the Award

Campus Compact 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. The award — previously known as the Thomas Ehrlich Faculty Award for Service-Learning — is named in honor of Thomas Ehrlich, former chair of the Campus Compact board of directors and president emeritus of Indiana University.

One award of $2,000 will be granted to a faculty member from a Campus Compact member institution. Up to ten finalists will also be selected and recognized. The award recipient will be notified in June 2009.
