Academy Announces New Fellows: 46 in the Class of 2005
Washington, DC—October 12, 2005—The National Academy of Public Administration is pleased to announce that its Fellowship has elected 46 new Fellows for 2005. Academy Fellows provide leadership, analysis and recommendations on projects commissioned by Congress, federal agencies, state and local governments and the private sector.
Fellows advise and actively participate in Academy studies and testify before Congressional committees on emerging public management challenges. Academy panels recently have advised top FBI leadership on the agency’s human capital efforts, offered comprehensive changes to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, and constructively advised the National Institutes of Health and the Corporation for National and Community Service.
The Academy has more than 600 elected Fellows, including current and former Cabinet officers, members of Congress, public managers, scholars, business executives, labor leaders, governors, mayors, state legislators and diplomats. Individuals are suggested for Fellowship by current Fellows, nominated by a committee, and elected based on their sustained and outstanding contribution to the field of public administration.
“The Academy Nominating Committee of 2005 is extremely pleased and proud of the rich diversity and significant quality of the newly elected Fellows. This new class, one of the largest in our history, increases the intellectual capital of the Academy,” said Nominating Chair William H. Hansell, Jr.
