“I was a fellow at the Center for the Study of American Politics at Yale in the 2005-2006 academic year. I remember my time there fondly. My post-doctoral colleagues, the faculty and staff at Yale were smart, kind people and a great pleasure to be around. The Center offered something we covet more and more as we grow in seniority in our academic profession, uninterrupted research time. In addition, the center offered research support, a high quality research environment and smart colleagues offering thoughtful advice on our scholarship. While the experience was for only one year, the contribution of this fellowship lasted much longer in research success, friendships and fond memories.”
