History
Campus Compact named this award in honor of Howard R. Swearer, the 15th president of Brown University and a
founder of Campus Compact. Throughout his career as an educator, Swearer believed universities should be communities of compassionate people involved in serious intellectual pursuits, but never divorced from the realities of their communities.
Community College Swearer Award:
Campus Compact will reserve at least one Swearer award for a community college student to recognize both the special mission of community colleges and the exemplary work of their students within a two-year time frame. All community college applicants will automatically be eligible for both this designated award as well as the other four awards.
