Fellowship In Brief
Three Kroc Fellows will be accepted into the program this year. The Fellowship begins in August 2012 and lasts one year. It includes a stipend of more than $40,000, plus benefits, which include paid vacation. Fellows will get rigorous, hands-on training in every aspect of public radio journalism — writing, reporting, producing and editing, for both radio and the Web.

Applications will be accepted now through the end of the year but must be postmarked no later than December 31, 2011.
