Spirit of Service Scholars 2015-2016 program

the next generation of outstanding

public service professionals

dean’s welcome Now in its sixth year, the Spirit of Service Scholars program continues to attract talented young leaders who are not only interested in affecting change in the future, they are doing so today.

Jonathan Koppell Dean, Arizona State University College of Public Service and Community Solutions

This year’s cohort of 13 dynamic students have demonstrated a commitment to public service and promise as transformational leaders. While the College of Public Service and Community Solutions leads this initiative, the students we engage come from across the university. They come from diverse backgrounds and degree programs. They embrace complex challenges and are actively moving forward with solutions that strengthen our communities locally and globally.

This program gives them tools, mentoring and networking opportunities that further their efforts. They also help us foster future leaders through a high school outreach program, where they will mentor young students in a public service project.

This is an important effort. We need prepared, ethical leaders who see public service as an opportunity to make a difference. Through the Spirit of Service Scholars program, we are not only encouraging these young professionals, we are making the communities in which we live stronger and more resilient.

The program could not happen without the many organizations and individuals whose support enables us to provide unique experiences and scholarship funding for these students. Thank you for your commitment to our future leaders.

“

There has never been a time when we were more in need of bright, talented young people committed to public service.

We face not only a series of challenging problems but, more profoundly, a crisis of confidence in the value and efficacy of service. These Spirit of Service Scholars are committed to enhancing their communities and we have every confidence in their ability to do so.

about the spirit of service scholars

the importance of mentors

Now in its sixth year, the Spirit of Service Scholars program helps prepare young professionals to take leadership roles in public and private nonprofit sectors through scholarships, mentoring and real-world experiences. The Spirit of Service Scholars program is offered through the College of Public Service and Community Solutions, but the students represent colleges from across the university, from freshmen to doctoral students.

Throughout the year, Spirit of Service Scholars receive mentorship from local public service leaders in career fields that match their professional interests. Mentors meet with Scholars throughout the year to provide insights, career advice and access to current community challenges and solutions that transcend single organizations or sectors. Thank you to this year’s esteemed group of mentors.

Since 2010, scholars have represented over 40 different majors and 13 different colleges. The 2015-2016 scholars include students from our College as well as the College of Nursing and Health Innovation, School of Geographical Sciences and Urban Planning, Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering, School of Life Sciences, College of Health Solutions, Herberger institute for Design and the Arts, T. Denny Sanford School of Social and Family Dynamics, and the New College of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences.

junior scholars program As a continuation of mentorship, Spirit of Service Scholars empower high-potential teens to enact social change in three area high schools. Through the Junior Scholars program, ASU Scholars lead small teams of high school students from ASU Preparatory Academy, Cesar Chavez High School and Camelback High School through exploration of leadership development, team management and social advocacy.

In the fall, ASU Scholars guide Junior Scholars through experience modules that focus on values, ethics, leadership strengths, team effectiveness and servant leadership. Then, in full knowledge transfer, ASU Scholars teach Junior Scholars about the issues they cover during their seminars, and the Junior Scholars adopt one cause to further research. The Junior Scholars then develop a social advocacy plan to educate and activate their peers around education, human trafficking, homelessness or immigration reform.

As a capstone experience, Junior Scholars take part in the College’s Public Service Summer Leadership Academy, a five-day residential experience that promotes public service, civic engagement and community solutions. Students complete community service projects at local nonprofits while interacting with organizational leadership, tour the Arizona State Capitol and the Arizona State House of Representatives chamber and participate in workshops that focused on writing resumes, grants and scholarship essays and personal statements.

“O

ne defining characteristic of the human mind is a conception of time. We alone among Earth’s creatures seem to have this. And, generally speaking, the more active the mind, the more clearly one sees how quickly the days and years pass.

Time, not money, is the hard, unprintable currency of the human economy. We cannot store it up for ourselves and our progeny. It can only be spent — spent in service of those we love, what we value, what we envision.

It’s often said with airs of worldly sophistication that time is money. It’s more true that both time and our sense of it are beautiful works of God.” —Jay Heiler, Chairman of the Arizona Board of Regents Spending your time in the service of others is the greatest human investment of all!

Congratulations to all Spirit of Service scholars.
