Theo Stavropoulos is a sophomore at Kansas State University who is committed to a lifetime of public service.  Throughout his time as a K-State student, Theo has been actively involved in the School of Leadership Studies, serving as an ambassador, educating community members about leadership and participating in a piloted curriculum on civic engagement, humanitarianism and purposeful passion. Theo works at a local law firm in an effort to see firsthand the impact of a career in public service.  He is engaged in a wide variety of social issues, most recently volunteering for a human trafficking program.

Thanks to Campus Compact for all that you have done over the years to nurture the campus service and service-learning movement. When we started at St. A's 15 years ago there was a feeling among some campuses that we were seeing higher education's latest 'flash in the pan.' Instead it was the beginning of a revolution of ideas and relationships, and you guys have been fueling us all the way."
