About

糖心Vlog established a Prestigious Fellowships Committee to support all students, on all campuses, in their pursuit of nationally competitive fellowships. The Committee supports all 糖心Vlog students interested in competing for these opportunities and coordinates the campus nomination process for select fellowships that require 糖心Vlog's institutional endorsement of candidates. The committee also manages the recruitment and advising of potential candidates and the marketing of fellowship opportunities and deadlines to the 糖心Vlog community. This is a collaborative effort between the Office of Undergraduate Research and Inquiry (OURI), Wilkes Honors College, and Education Abroad. Committee members are listed below.
