Faculty & Alumni Fellowships

Community Alumni Fellowships

The CPPS Alumni Community Fellowship is a new program established to support recent graduates engaged in PPS related projects either affiliated directly with the college or involving members of the college community. The program offers support for Fellows engaged in PPS projects in the local community.

The 2012-2013 Community Alumni Fellows are:

  • Tiffany Kallam ’12 who is working with Guilford College faculty to develop a prison education program for people incarcerated in North Carolina.
  • Jason Strauss ’11 who is working with tenants of Oakwood Forest Trailer Park and Guilford College Spanish students and faculty to provide tutoring for resident children and community building for adults.

Faculty Fellowships

The CPPS Faculty Fellowship offers Guilford College faculty members the opportunity to advance the work of principled problem solving in conjunction with a project consistent with the faculty member’s experience and interests. Possible projects may include but are not limited to a targeted, hands-on PPS project, a PPS research undertaking, creating new or retooling existing syllabi to match PPS priorities, and PPS faculty seminar development. 

A call for letters of interest will be issued in January 2013. For more information, please contact Mark Justad.
