Speaking Fellow Application Open

The application to become a Speaking Fellow is now open! 

Speaking Fellows create learning environments that empower students to explore, question, and reflect on their speaking and listening skills. Through peer-to-peer workshops and one-on-one meetings, Speaking Fellows help students articulate what they want to say and how they want to express those ideas to others. We welcome first-years and sophomores in all majors to apply. The application is due March 22nd, 2024 at 5pm ET.
