  • May 27 – August 2, 2024: Full-time work with Twin Cities organizational partners, plus weekly evening cohort meetings (time TBA).  Fellows receive a stipend and 1 academic credit for their summer work.  Any other paid, unpaid, or voluntary summer work must be discussed with Professor Lisa Mueller and clearly indicated on the application.
  • Week of July 29, 2024: Closing retreat.
  • September 2024 (date TBA): Information and recruiting session (some past fellows may be studying away).
  • Chuck Green Fellows will actively participate in all class sessions in the spring term, work collaboratively with one another as well as the partners throughout the fellowship, and be available to serve as peer advisers for the cohort of fellows to follow in their footsteps the next Spring.

The Chuck Green Fellowship selection committee will give careful consideration to all completed applications. Interviews with finalists will be conducted in late October.
