Rosenfield Program

The Rosenfield Program in Public Affairs, International Relations, and Human Rights prepares students for a lifetime of civic engagement and connects the Grinnell community to the broader social and political issues that define the world beyond Grinnell. The program enriches the College curriculum by bringing distinguished scholars, public servants, and commentators to campus. Other initiatives include funding student internships and sponsoring study tours. Rosenfield Program activities contribute to Grinnell’s tradition of social responsibility and help to build a lively academic community that links Grinnell students to the world.

A Note from the Director

Greetings from the Rosenfield Program as Spring semester begins. Don’t miss the College’s MLK Day event – to be held on January 26, 2024 at 6 pm in JRC 101 – featuring Justice Alan Page. (See above.) Programming this semester will also include a panel event organized by Valery Lopez, a student member of the Rosenfield Program Committee; “Marshalltown’s Immigrant Narratives” will be at 4:00 pm on February 15. And a week later, the February 22 convocation speaker will be Luis Fabiano de Assis (Center for Human Rights and International Justice at Stanford University), who will speak about the use of data, including artificial intelligence, to address human trafficking. Other events and programming in the works, including prep for participants in the “Politics of Artificial Intelligence” Spring Break study tour, co-sponsored with CLS. Best wishes for a productive semester.

Internships

The Rosenfield Program funds students whose internships fall under the program’s mission areas of public affairs, international relations, and human rights. Take a look at the students who received our support in past summers. And you won’t want to miss the 2023 internship presentations on Sept. 5.
