* The endorsement from the faculty member can be in the form of an email (it does not need to be a formal letter of recommendation). However, we ask that the faculty member indicate their knowledge of and involvement in the project thus far, how this fellowship will contribute to your scholarly and professional development, and their willingness to advise on the project.
