James Logan Walker, Rose State College, OK

James Logan Walker, a student at Rose State College, has moved beyond campus to engage a wide variety of people in an effort to find solutions to community challenges. He serves with Heart of God ministries in Oklahoma City as a Children’s Training Director and a Physical Training Director. The ministry efforts are focused on working to assist underprivileged, elderly, and mentally challenged individuals. He has also helped establish a community-based ministry in a low-income suburb of Oklahoma City focused on food and support mechanisms for the at-risk residents of that community. Walker is also an active volunteer with the Senior Olympics and in providing support to the families of deployed military personnel at Tinker Air Force Base.

Campus Compact's workshops have been extremely valuable. Faculty often become energized by the workshop content and bring that enthusiasm back to campus."
