Dick Merriman, president of Southwestern College, has been elected chairman of the executive board of Kansas Campus Compact.
He leads a board of college presidents and other educational leaders committed to advancing service learning and civic engagement for Kansas college students.
I have always had a drive to serve others and work for the common good. But I never fully realized that I could go beyond volunteerism--that my opinion and hard work could influence policy decisions. My views changed when I sat in the office of one of my legislators in Washington, DC.
-Amanda Coffin, University of Maine at Farmington, Campus Compact student leader
