All interested Scholars are encouraged to apply the following First Year Leadership Academy sponsored by McKinsey & Company. Maital Gutman (Duke '05) is available to connect with interested scholars about this opportunity as well as many others at McKinsey. She can be reach via email at maital.guttman@gmail.com About FYLA: McKinsey’s First Year Leadership Academy (FYLA) was established in 2017 with the goal of meeting and supporting talented university first years who identify as Black, African American, Hispanic, Latino, or Native American. Our global All In, Diversity and Inclusion initiative engages colleagues around the world to develop and share innovative ways of working that advance inclusivity. We want our teams to reflect the diversity of the world and our clients. To ensure diversity in gender, ethnicity, background, education, orientation, etc., we constantly look for new ways to reach people who might otherwise not be considering a career in consulting. To achieve this, we have developed a number of programs including Sophomore Summer Business Analyst, LAUNCH, the HBCU Consulting League, the spring GLAM series, and more. FYLA is an immersive two-day workshop during which attendees explore the potential of a career in consulting and refine their problem-solving and leadership skills. Through interactive activities, case workshops, panels, and networking events, attendees will learn about our work, culture, and people.

In celebration of our 20^th anniversary, the Carolina Center for Public Service (CCPS) is offering Service Partnership Mini-Grants to Carolina students. We intend for these mini-grants, which range from $150-300, to help build deeper connections between Carolina students and off-campus community partners by funding project- or event-based collaborations. Examples of potential uses of funding:

• food and materials for a community coalition meeting
• classroom supplies to enhance a partnership with an after-school program
• publicity for a community festival

To apply, students submit a project or event proposal along with the written endorsement of a community partner. When a proposal is approved, CCPS will issue the mini-grant to the student in full. All full-time undergraduate, graduate or professional students or student teams at UNC-Chapel Hill are eligible to apply. While a maximum of only four students can be listed on the application, a team can be made up of as many students as necessary for the project in question. Individuals may apply, but teams often offer stronger proposals. Students are eligible to receive only one mini-grant per academic year.  

The Robert E. Bryan Fellowship in the APPLES Service-Learning program is designed for undergraduate student teams interested in creating social impact locally and/or globally through the creation of an innovative project that addresses a community-identified need. The fellowship goals are to:

• Provide practical support and mentorship to students in developing their projects,
• Contribute to addressing community-identified needs by supporting innovative projects, and
• Develop a supportive cohort of students working together to create positive social impact.

Fellowship recipients enroll in a service-learning course on project management during the spring semester of the fellowshipAdd New On Campus Opportunity year and receive up to $1,500 to help launch their project. They also gain access to professional development funds, support from APPLES students and staff and invaluable leadership training and personal development. Up to six team fellowships are awarded each fall for the following calendar year (January – December) with applications due in mid-October. After completing the fellowship year, teams can reapply for a second year of funding of up to $1,000. The fellowship is named in honor of alumnus Robert Emmet Bryan (1904-1975), a native of Newton Grove, North Carolina, who was a strong supporter of public service.
