Academics Campus & Community
March 4, 2021
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.

The Federalist Society s latest fundraising letter, from President Eugene B. Meyer, announces its Freedom of Thought Project, a special initiative designed to promote discussion and debate on freedom of thought in five consequential areas of society.
The five areas are: Big Tech, the corporate world, the legal community, the academic world, and opinion leaders.
Meyer notes the firings that have become an all-too-common occurrence as an enforcement mechanism for wokeism. In what appears to me to be a first for the Federalist Society, he drops the W-word.
It is striking that some of these efforts (by Black Lives Matter, etc.) are extreme enough to suggest that we defund the police or that all white Americans are racist but even more perniciously, many in this movement suggest that certain beliefs, held by millions of Americans, are unacceptable to express or even think.
