Nominations for the Pamplin Society of Fellows

Nominations are being accepted for the Pamplin Society of Fellows. Seven Fellows will be selected from the class of 2016. Please submit your nominations by Monday, May 20, 2013.

The Society recognizes exceptional students who have demonstrated a commitment to academic excellence, service, and physical fitness, and whose conduct is marked by integrity and leadership. Seven new Fellows will be inducted into the Society this fall, joining fourteen other undergraduate Fellows, the alumni Fellows from the classes of ’94 through ’13, the four Pamplin Professors, and the future Fellows in a lifetime association.

Nominations will be through an on-line process. Please go to this link: https://docs.google.com/a/lclark.edu/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHM1U2QxMjF2MU5lOFZ0VXpNTmtNLUE6MQ  

All academically qualified nominees will be notified and invited to submit letters of application. The selection team—four of the Pamplin Professors, members of the faculty council, and the Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences—will assess the complete files and select a field of finalists. Current undergraduate Fellows will interview the finalists on September 8 & 9, 2013. If a finalist is participating in an overseas or off-campus program, he or she will be interviewed by conference call or skype. After weighing interview evaluations and making a review of the finalists’ files, the selection committee will advance the names and profiles of the seven proposed new Fellows to the President for approval. The new Fellows will be notified of their selection by mid September and will be expected to participate in the Society’s fall retreat in the beginning of October.
