This May-June, the IAS will be piloting a new program: short-term themed fellowships.
IAS Residential Fellowships provide time for faculty, graduate students, staff, and community scholars, artists, and professionals to remove themselves from their normal obligations and work on their own research or creative practice.

Minnesota Transform: A Just University for Just Futures
I am so thrilled to join the Minnesota Transform team as project manager. I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a B.S. in Urban Studies and a Master’s in Heritage Studies and Public History (HSPH). I bring to the initiative a background in public history focused racial justice projects adjacent to the University.
