Applications are open for the Newman Civic Fellowship

UMA Civic Engagement is now accepting student applications for the Newman Civic Fellowship!

Each year, UMA can nominate ONE student to this national fellowship opportunity, which includes leadership development, national networking, and mentoring.

Are you that student? Or do you know that student?

About the Newman Civic Fellowship

The Newman Civic Fellowship is intended to honor the leadership legacy of Campus Compact founder Frank Newman by recognizing community-committed students. The fellowship is a one-year experience that provides students with training and resources that nurture their assets and passions to help them develop strategies for social change. Through the fellowship, Campus Compact provides in-person and virtual learning opportunities focused on the skills fellows need to serve as effective agents of change in addressing public problems and building equitable communities.

Learn more about the Newman Civic Fellowship

Application Deadline

All applications must be submitted by end-of-day on Friday, January 15th. Contact Kati Corlew at kate.corlew@maine.edu for more information.

UMA is a member institution of the Maine Campus Compact, and may only nominate one student for this fellowship. This application is designed to help us get to know students who are interested in this fellowship opportunity so that we can put forward a strong nomination for our selected student.
