The 2010 Class of Academy Fellows
The 2010 Fellows include leaders from community colleges, foundations, state and local public agencies, and community based nonprofits. They are based in urban, suburban and rural locations throughout the country, and work in a range of sectors, including health care, energy, aerospace, manufacturing, construction and more.
That diversity promises to make for a rich and rewarding Academy in 2010-11. Read our press release announcing the new class of fellows.
