Tom Luxon, director of the Dartmouth Center for the Advancement of Learning (DCAL) and professor of English, received the Presidents’ Good Steward Award from the Campus Compact for New Hampshire in April. The award honors a faculty, administration, or staff member who has contributed his or her professional expertise in service to the wider community and who has significantly advanced public service on their campus. Luxon’s citation noted in particular DCAL’s collaborations with the Tucker Foundation to offer seminars on community-based learning. Founded in 1997, Campus Compact for New Hampshire is a statewide consortium of college and university presidents and private sector partners who are united in their commitment to the civic purposes of higher education.
