Governor Rick Snyder said the introduction of the inaugural W.K. Kellogg-Woodrow Wilson Michigan Teaching Fellowship class at the Capitol on Thursday symbolized something much more important than the tax debate going on down the hall. Each Fellow will receives $30,000 to pursue a customized, one-year master\'s degree program designed to prepare them to teach in high-need urban or rural high schools. The three-year program is geared toward recent college graduates and those from the workforce looking to pursue a teaching career. The recipients will attend one of six Michigan universities including Wayne State University.
