Fellows Program
The Center for Responsible Citizenship is committed to fostering community and civic virtue through charitable inquiry into the questions that connect us. Our Fellows Program offers a unique opportunity for students to engage in this work from the very start of their college journey.
As a Fellow, you will meet regularly with our Program Coordinator to reflect on ideas explored through CRC events and readings. You’ll also assist with CRC research initiatives by reading assigned materials and submitting brief summary reports (approximately two hours per week). Fellows play an active role in our intellectual community—attending CRC events, participating in the Reading Group, and supporting occasional program activities.
In return, Fellows receive curated books, special extracurricular opportunities, and a $750 stipend.
