Thorp Faculty
Engaged Scholars
“The Thorp Faculty Engaged Scholars
program exposed me to brilliant faculty from
across the university who share a commitment
to producing scholarship that is both rigorous
and relevant to people outside the academy.
The interdisciplinary program helped me
think of new ideas for my own work—both
in terms of research and publication—that I
wouldn't have otherwise. I am enormously
grateful to the Carolina Center for Public
Service for giving me this opportunity.”
––Barbara Fedders

selected from nine schools and 21
departments to participate in the
program.
