Welcome to the Freshman Fellowship Program

Jeopardy! Game

Recently, our freshman fellows took a break from their research projects to play a fun game of Jeopardy! We had five teams who took the challenge and wagered their points. Congratulations to the winning team who each took home a $15 iTunes card. Thank you to Lenny Shible from the NMU Health Promotion Office for hosting this fun event.
