Meet the 2023 SUPER fellows
The SUPER fellows reflect a mix of individuals from different races and ethnicities, including White students, thereby reinforcing that SUPER fellows are not limited to those from underrepresented groups, which is helpful in this post-Supreme Court (SSFA) anti-EDI/affirmative action legal world.
The inaugural SUPER fellows cohort represents 22 universities across the United States and Canada. Listed information includes research topic, current institution, anticipated graduation year, and research mentor’s name and institution.
