Young Scholars Program

This program is designed for college seniors or recently graduated college students who will soon enter graduate school. Young scholars should apply as summer fellows. If there is a core group among our applicants, Gordon Marino will convene the Young Scholars Program. Participants will meet with him on a daily basis, usually during the month of July. In-depth study of a chosen Kierkegaard text or other topic will be the focus as well as Marino's mentorship for the scholar's own research and study.

To apply for the Young Scholars Program, please send your resumè, proposal for research in the library, and two recommendations to Gordon Marino as soon as your area of interest is established and not later than March 15 for the following summer. Sometimes later applications can be accepted for this program depending on interest.
