Two students from the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University have been named Newman Civic Fellows by Campus Compact, a Boston-based nonprofit organization working to advance the public purpose of higher education.
CSB’s Faith Gronda and SJU’s Fabian Venegas-Ramos are part of the organization’s 2021-22 cohort of 212 students from 39 states, Washington, D.C. and Mexico.
The Newman Civic Fellowship is a year-long program for students from Campus Compact member institutions. The students selected are leaders on their campuses who demonstrate a commitment to finding solutions for challenges facing communities, and are nominated by their presidents or chancellors.
