Two University of North Georgia graduates have earned the Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellowship.
2016 alumna Krista McDonald Buchanan and 2018 alumna Aneta Galazka were picked as part of the 24-person cohort for the 2018 fellowship for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) teachers. They were selected by the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation.
The fellowship includes a $30,000 stipend toward master’s degree work. Winners make a three-year commitment to teach in a high-need urban or rural high school. They will receive support and mentoring during that time period.
Buchanan and Galazka join six previous UNG graduates selected as Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellows: Jami Brownlee and Jonathan Long in 2017, Rachel Hastreiter and Catherine Harvey in 2016, and Christy Stromberg and James Herndon in 2015 as part of the state’s inaugural cohort of honorees.
