Citizen Leaders Fellowship Practicum is a short course paired with the year-long Citizen Leaders Fellowship. This course equips students with ethnographic and contemplative practices to develop their understanding of difference, belonging and ethical leadership. It also provides mentorship, support, and guidance as fellows design, implement, and assess a semester-long project based on their own vision for student flourishing.

After successful completion of Capstone I, students pursue independent research into a topic of their choice, based on their academic, or professional, or personal interests and write a substantial paper that reflects a deep understanding of the topic and do an oral presentation.
