The Wood Student Community Commitment Award was created in 1996
in honor of Dr. Richard J. Wood who served as the founding
chairperson of Indiana Campus Compact’s Board of Presidents from
1992 to 1996. This award continues Dr. Wood’s legacy as an advocate
of students as stewards to the community, and recognize students at
Indiana Campus Compact partner institutions who have demonstrated
an outstanding commitment to community engagement.
This award was created in 2006 to honor professional staff at
Indiana Campus Compact partner institutions who demonstrate an
ability to eff ectively cultivate, facilitate, and maintain
high-quality partnerships with community organizations and
representatives. This award recognizes Community Engagement
Professionals’ knowledge and ability to conceptually, ethically,
and eff ectively represent the foundations of the fi eld and the
breadth of community-engaged work.

The Brian Douglas Hiltunen Faculty Award for the Outstanding
Contribution to the Scholarship of Engagement honors mid to late
career faculty at Indiana Campus Compact partner institutions who
exemplify what it means to be an engaged scholar. Brian Hiltunen
served Indiana Campus Compact for four years as a project director
and helped to design our faculty development programs, prior to his
death in 1999. The Hiltunen Award was established in 2000 to honor
Brian’s legacy and his work with faculty who are practicing the
scholarship of engagement.
Brian Douglas Hiltunen Faculty Award
Indiana Campus Compact recognizes the incredible dedication and
work that our partner institutions’ community partners put into
co-educating their students. We recognize that whether we talk
about community service, service-learning, community-based
research, or any other form of community engagement, institutions
are not doing the work alone. It is only accomplished through
strong partnerships with community organizations. We believe that
each one of these generous agencies deserves recognition at our
annual Award Ceremony and there is more to be gained by bringing
them all together to celebrate than to choose one over another.
