In the spring of 2019, E3 Alliance and other regional partners will host a series of deliberative dialogues around Central Texas about education after high school. In this two-night dialogue series, held in five different locations across the region in late March and April, we will engage parents, students, educators, business leaders, policymakers and others in a structured conversation on this critical issue. Participants will learn about the strong connection between post-secondary credentials and economic mobility,
and identify actions that can be taken to overcome barriers and help students reach their goals. The output of these dialogues will:
• Help advance the college-going culture in our region
• Foster a sense of agency in acting on solutions for individual participants
• Impact the way E3 Alliance approaches its work with new insights for alignment

The Engaged Scholar Initiative Undergraduate Fellowship is a two-year program for juniors seeking a unique research experience with graduate students in the humanities. Seniors are also eligible to apply and will be considered for one-year fellowships.

The application is due on Friday, March 29 by 5:00 pm. For more information and the application, please visit the ESI website: https://liberalarts.utexas.edu/research/mellon-esi/.
