Upon nomination as FIU’s first ACE Fellow by Provost Douglas Wartzok, I negotiated a year-long dual placement at Harvey Mudd College and Claremont Graduate University, in Claremont California. There, I worked closely with HMC President Maria Klawe and CGU President Debbie Freund to explore all externally-facing aspects of the presidency, including fundraising, board relations, alumni relations, strategic planning, consortial relations, and accreditation. The specific focus of my Fellowship Year Project was diversity.
