Pace University Receives $25,000 Teagle Foundation Grant to Establish Fellowship Program
Pace University was recently awarded a $25,000 grant from the Teagle Foundation to establish an undergraduate fellowship to create the next generation of leaders working on the governance of New York City waterways.
The funds are from The Teagle Foundation’s Education for American Civic Life initiative and will provide support for faculty in the development of an undergraduate fellowship program, “The City and the Sea: A New York City Fellowship in Civics and Public Service.” The fellowship will be a combination of two courses and an internship experience.
In partnership with the Helene T. and Grant M. Wilson Center for Social Entrepreneurship, the Dyson College of Arts and Sciences departments of Public Administration and Political Science, and the Center for Community Action and Research, the program will connect students with New York City public offices and community organizations and develop their understanding of the city around them, while engaging them through texts, history, and ideas.
