The Fellows of
​Shepard Residential College

Fellows are members of Northwestern University's faculty and staff that are affiliated with Shepard Residential College, often presenting fireside chats; being fellows of the month; attending weekly fellows lunches, fellows game night, and the fellows dinner during Wildcat Welcome. They also attend many Shepard events and enjoy interacting with Sheep in and out of the classroom, even teaching classes in SMQ. Shepard is a multi-thematic residential college, so we proudly boast the most academically diverse group of fellows on campus! 

Shepard is privileged to have a fellowship representing the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences, the McCormick School of Engineering, the School of Communication, the School of Education and Social Policy, the Feinberg School of Medicine, and Northwestern's administration.

Our fellows include directors of undergraduate studies, the Director of Admissions, the President-Elect of the American Public Health Association, three Shepard Faculty chairs, two Faculty-in-Residence, Deans, administrators, & award-winning theatre artists, physicians, lawyers, psychologists, ministers, historians, economists, engineers, linguists, and philosophers.
