From the time Camille Brock ’24 was very young, she remembers volunteering in the community. While in elementary school, she donated canned goods to send to the local pantry. At 12 years old, she volunteered at a Special Olympics event in Binghamton, New York.
Her dedication continued when Brock enrolled at IC. As a member of the Park Scholar Program, she has twice served as a leader for the college’s Jumpstart program for incoming students, is currently the president of the student club IC After Dark, and works in the Office of Student Engagement. Off campus, she volunteers at Racker, a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating opportunities for people with disabilities and their families.
For her continued dedication to giving back, Brock has been awarded the Newman Civic Fellowship for the 2023–24 school year by Campus Compact. The fellowship is a prestigious yearlong program that recognizes and supports students based on their potential for public leadership and their work with communities. Throughout the award year, fellows receive learning opportunities that help them develop strategies for positive social change. Brock is the sixth Ithaca College student to earn the fellowship.
