Interested in Becoming a Fellow?

All of our fellows share one thing in common: they love engaging with students.  An ideal fellow enjoys forming reciprocal connections with students, where both share their knowledge, experiences, and perspectives. Interested in becoming an IRC Fellow? Contact IRC Principal Abbey Stockstill.
