Elizabeth Foster (C’27) stood before a packed room of nearly 2,000 attendees at the Washington Hilton last month for the biennial American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) awards ceremony recognizing lifetime achievements and contributions to civil rights and civil liberties.

Honorees included music legend Bruce Springsteen, civil rights activist and Super Bowl quarterback Colin Kaepernick — and Foster herself.

Foster, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, was named the inaugural ACLU Next Generation Leader in Civil Rights and Civil Liberties for advocacy work fighting against book bans in her hometown of Beaufort, South Carolina.

At Georgetown, Foster has built upon her advocacy work as a campus free speech fellow, student journalist and writing tutor at a local jail. https://bit.ly/4gmEOBH

Building on a phrase often attributed to St. Ignatius of Loyola to “set the world on fire,” Peñalver likened the development of a lifelong passion for learning to building a campfire.
