Betty Williams-Wiles is deeply committed to her community and Baton Rouge Community College. Scheduled to graduate in May 2011 with a degree in Liberal Arts, her ultimate dream is to make an impact on others through simple human connection and how it relates to Art. She has explored and expanded these connections through work with young people at the Prescott Middle School and with the elderly population at the Williamsburg Assisted Living Community. As she moves forward in her career as an artist, she intends to use her art as a tool to inspire and serve others.

Betty Williams-Wiles, Baton Rouge Community College, Louisiana
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.
