Please post this flyer in your Advising Center and encourage your advisors to share it with students who may be interested in the program. The Archer Fellowship Program takes students to Washington, D.C., where they take courses in policy-making, power, and advocacy at the Archer Center while they pursue an internship of their choosing. While the program is an excellent fit for political science majors, public administration majors, and pre-law students, UTSA (and other UT institutions) have sent students to the program from a wide variety of majors - accounting, American Studies, anthropology, art history, communication, criminal justice, economics, English, environmental science, finance, health, history, humanities, management, Mexican American studies, philosophy, psychology, public health, sociology, and women's studies. Undergraduate Archer Fellows go to Washington in the spring or fall semester and earn 15 credits. I am working now to set up information sessions on the Archer Program for advisors as well and will send you that information shortly. Thank you for your help! Yours, Ann Eisenberg University Coordinator, UTSA Archer Fellowship Program
