Information for Students
Campus Compact works to develop students not only as active citizens but also as leaders in guiding their own civic and academic learning. Our initiatives both guide and recognize students' efforts to make college a place to connect with the community.
Here are some ways students can use Campus Compact's resources to become more effective advocates for change on campus and in the community:
