The Jackson Munro Public Service Fellowship (formerly the Sterling and
Gene Munro Public Service Fellowship) encourages a life-long commitment
to public service by providing outstanding undergraduates with the
opportunity to explore their potential through
service and leadership in the community.
Jackson Munro Public Service Fellows are selected based on the strength of a public service project proposed
in collaboration with a public sector (non-profit or governmental) organization.
Factors influencing the selection of Munro Public Service Fellows include:
- Historical commitment to and involvement with community engagement activities
- Depth of partnership/relationship with proposed public sector partner
- Scope and impact of proposed work during the Fellowship
- Potentially sustainability of proposed project, how will the organization sustain this work at the end of your Fellowship?
- Connection between proposed project, academic studies, and professional/educational goals and objectives
Made possible through the support of the Henry M. Jackson Foundation,
the Fellowship is named for late Senator Henry M. “Scoop” Jackson, S.
Sterling Munro, Jr., the former top aide to Senator Jackson and
Administrator of the Bonneville Power Administration, and Gene Munro, a
lifelong advocate for public service and the wife
of S. Sterling Munro Jr.
The application deadline for the 2015 Fellowship is 11:59PM on
Friday, October 31st. Application instructions and Fellowship expectations can be found at
