Newman Civic Fellowship

Throughout the fellowship year, Campus Compact provides students with opportunities to nurture their assets and help them develop strategies for social change - creating a network of connected and engaged student leaders who can support one another in making positive change. Some opportunities and benefits include:

• Regular virtual events focused on skill development and professional learning
• An annual in-person Convening of Fellows
• One-on-one leadership development with a local mentor of the fellow's choice
• Connection to a nationwide network of engaged student leaders, both during and after the fellowship year
• Special scholarship and career opportunities
• Opportunities to present and publish work through Campus Compact

Fellows are nominated by the president or chancellor based on their potential for public leadership and their work with communities. Nominees must fulfill the following requirements:

• Be currently enrolled in a graduate or undergraduate program at Texas State University. Preference is given to undergraduate students.
• Have at least one year of education remaining at the date of nomination, meaning the student fellow must be enrolled as a student for the full duration of their fellowship.
• Commit to providing a short reflection piece to Campus Compact during their fellowship year.
• Commit to being present and fully engaged in offered fellowship activities.
