Community and Catalysts

Community and Catalysts: Achievements, Awards, and Innovations


As one of the largest colleges at George Mason University, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences stands ready to help our students create the changes that will make our communities a better place.

The college is a force for innovation in research and teaching and a national leader in the humanities and social sciences, serving as the educational heart of this great institution because we serve every Mason student.

On November 8, 2025 we will celebrate the newest cohort of our college’s change makers—alumni driven to improve the world around them—at our annual Community and Catalysts event.

Meet our 2025 awardees.
