Jordan Seto, Mount Holyoke College

Jordan Seto invests in building enthusiasm among fellow students for community activism with a particular focus upon equity and access to quality health care. The thread running through her work with Mount Holyoke College’s Student Coalition for Action, her Community Fellowship with Tapestry Health, her support for Holyoke Bound and other campus and community commitments is her passion for improving health outcomes among people in distressed communities.

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."

-Daniel Forbes, Director, Meelia Center for Community Service, Saint Anselm College
