Alexandra Henriquez, 2024-25 Newman Civic Fellow
Each year, one NIU student is selected for the Newman Civic Fellowship Program, which offers students opportunities to expand their learning, make an impact and create meaningful professional connections. The selection is based on demonstrated civic engagement leadership and commitment to finding solutions for challenges facing communities.
Through this yearlong program, Campus Compact provides students with learning and networking opportunities that help to nurture their development as civic leaders. Programming emphasizes personal, professional, and civic growth that can empower them to collaborate effectively across disciplines and create large-scale positive change.
Please submit your nomination for the 2025-26 program at NIU! Nominations are due Friday, Dec. 6.
Also, take a few moments to meet this year’s Newman Civic Fellow, Alexandra Henriquez, a senior majoring in biological sciences.
