Each semester one SNF Ithaca Senior Fellow teaches a one-credit course in the Biden School. Senior Fellows are experienced public servants, journalists, scholars or activists with substantial experience in government and civic life.

SNF Ithaca Senior Fellows are practitioners and public figures who offer students a unique learning experience connecting to democratic citizenship, civil discourse, civic engagement and/or the mediated public square.
