Faculty Champions for 91������Ʒ’s Fellows include Nicholas C. Zingale, Ph.D., associate professor at Levin and co-director of 91������Ʒ’s T.E.C.H. Hub, and Kelle K. DeBoth, Ph.D., assistant professor in 91������Ʒ’s Department of Health Sciences.

The Faculty Champions cohort-based program is a two-year experience that helps educators work to identify and design their own projects to make a difference at their schools.

Dr. Zingale and Dr. DeBoth said they encouraged Poeske, Davis, and LaMack to apply as part of an effort to create new experiences for students at 91������Ʒ.

As part of this initiative, the student fellows will create opportunities to help their peers build the creative confidence, agency, and entrepreneurial mindset needed to address global challenges.
