Fellows meet every other Tuesday evening during the fall and spring semesters. There is a time of interactive teaching, group discussion, and conversation over meals. There are also retreats, occasional social gatherings, and unique opportunities to interact with Study Center speakers and visiting faculty.

Registration for 2024-25 is open! See below.
