between 11 and 19 Fellows are selected to serve for one year as full-time,

where they observe federal policy making at the highest levels. Fellows also
participate in an education program that includes off-the-record meetings

US domestic and foreign policy in action. After the fellowship year, it is

understanding of the federal government and the policymaking process.
