Who We Are

The Bob Graham Center Student Fellows serve as the Graham Center’s official student ambassadors, engaging the University of Florida and the greater Gainesville community through civic engagement, service, and public programming.

Founded in 2015, the Student Fellows are a student organization affiliated with the Bob Graham Center for Public Service. The group brings together passionate, civic-minded students who represent the values of public service, community engagement, and student leadership. Fellows collaborate with the Center to plan student programs and initiatives while supporting the Center’s broader events and activities.

Through a committee structure that reflects members’ interests, Student Fellows work to strengthen the civic health of the University of Florida campus and the surrounding community while creating opportunities for students to connect, collaborate, and take part in meaningful service.

Members also gain leadership and professional development experience through the Center’s public programs, experiential learning opportunities, and small-group conversations with policymakers and public leaders.
