First-Year Fellows

First-Year Fellows make up a distinguished cohort of faculty from departments and subject areas across the WSU Pullman Campus who teach courses recommended for first year students. These faculty members support first year students’ transition to college by offering supplemental out-of-class opportunities focused on academic success, sense of belonging, and community.
