“Christian’s application expressed a strong interest in public service with a particular focus on strategic social spending and innovation in education financing for future generations,” noted Professor John Greabe, director of the Rudman Center. “As part of his fellowship, Christian will help to organize a Rudman Center event connected with his areas of interest.”
“We deeply appreciate the Peterson Foundation’s support,” continued Professor Greabe. The Foundation’s generosity makes possible this wonderful opportunity for Christian.”
The Rudman-Peterson Fellowship is awarded each spring to a 1L who is interested in fiscal policy. This fellowship pays full tuition for its recipient’s 2L and 3L years, as well as $4,000 stipends for placements in summer positions involving budgetary and fiscal work.
