One Year Later: Returning Fellows Gather at Macalester

TJ Fellows 2026

Last week we welcomed home the 57th Class of Thomas J. Watson Fellows at Macalester College.

Macalester College President, Suzanne M. Rivera, Watson Advisors, and Watson Fellows from across the region celebrated and discussed fellows' projects that ranged from emergency medicine to immersive history; agriculture policy to interactive textiles; animal conservation to vernacular architecture

The new class joins a community of over 3000 fellows who have taken this extraordinary journey.
