Dr. Christian Selected for 2022-2023 National Public Voices Fellowship Led by OpEd Project

9/16/2022

The Public Voices Fellowship (PVF) at the University of Illinois System is part of a prestigious national initiative to change who writes history. The 2022-2023 cohort for the system-wide PVF were announced on September 15 by Avijit Ghosh, executive vice president and vice president for academic affairs for the University of Illinois System.

The PVF is a unique opportunity led by The OpEd Project and designed for tenure-system faculty. The program is part of a national initiative to help faculty amplify their expertise in ways that can contribute to public conversations about pressing issues. The internationally acclaimed curriculum and method explore leadership, power, and action in an unfair world. Using time tested methods of transformational learning, fellows will explore how credibility works, how ideas spread, when and why minds change, and how ideas play out over time and space. 

Now in its fourth year, the program traditionally hosted 20 slots to tenured faculty. For the first time ever, this year two of those slots were reserved for non-tenured faculty at the three universities, which include the University of Chicago (UIC), University of Illinois Springfield (UIS), and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (U of I/UIUC).  

The faculty chosen for the 2022-2023 cohort includes the following:

    DocM.A.C.'s  Musings

    I am Dr. Margena A. Christian aka DocM.A.C. Some folks feel my way with words, so I thought I would drop a few random "soul lessons" with a little bit of this and a whole lot of that. Keep the faith and always trust the process.
