ACADEMY ANNOUNCES NEW FELLOWS: 47 IN THE CLASS OF 2006
Washington, DC — October 26, 2006 — The National Academy of Public Administration is pleased to announce that its Fellowship has elected 47 new Fellows for 2006. The Academy’s more than 600 elected Fellows includes 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.
Academy 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 transformation, assisted the National Institutes of Health with their administrative restructuring, examined the short and long-term fiscal future of the United States, and recommended policies, procedures, prison design and surveillance systems to eliminate the problem of prison rape.
“The Academy Nominating Committee of 2006 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 Chairs Jonathan Breul and William Hansell, Jr. Joining them on this year’s nominating committee were Gail Christopher, H. George Fredrickson, David Garrison, Norman Johnson, J. Christopher Mihm, Chester Newland, Thomas Stanton, and Pamela Syfert.
