The award recognizes senior faculty (post-tenure or middle-to-late career at institutions without tenure) for exemplary leadership in advancing students’ civic learning and higher education’s contributions to the public good, including teaching with engaged pedagogies, fostering reciprocal community partnerships, building institutional support for service-learning and civic engagement, conducting community-based research, and other means of acting on individual and institutional civic commitments.

The recipient and finalists will be announced in early fall 2016 and will be honored at Campus Compact’s Western Region Continuums of Service conference in April 2017. In addition, the winner will receive a $2,000 award.

More information about the award and application guidelines can be found here. Nominations will be accepted until May 16, 2016.
