Celebrate with Us
The Michigan Society of Fellows’ 55th Anniversary Symposium will take place on November 6 to 7, 2025, at the historic Rackham Graduate School on the University of Michigan’s Ann Arbor campus. This landmark gathering celebrates more than 55 years of interdisciplinary scholarship and artistic innovation and the vibrant community that has flourished through the society.

About the Symposium
The program features 16 fellowship alumni in interdisciplinary panel dialogues exploring urgent and enduring questions across the sciences, humanities, and arts. The symposium also includes a recital of chamber music from the Haitian Revolution, recovered by a recent fellow.

Together, these panels and performances highlight the society’s ongoing contributions to scholarship, public discourse, and creative expression. The symposium offers a rare opportunity for intellectual exchange, community building, and collective reflection on the past, present, and future of the Michigan Society of Fellows.
