The 2024-25 Diversity and Community Fellows

February 13, 2025

Eight ISSI graduate students were selected to be Diversity & Community Fellows this year: Alexandra Gessesse, Aukeem Ballard, Benjamin Njila Fields, Julio Salas, Marlena Robbins, Martha Ortega Mendoza, Mitzia Martinez Castellanos, and Monica De La Cruz. Fellows are current graduate students whose unifying mission is to support the development of an inclusive graduate learning community by enhancing the cultural, academic, and professional experiences of historically underrepresented students. We appreciate their contributions to the Graduate Division and beyond!
