The note below is part of a series of emails highlighting Claremont’s success over the past year, some behind-the-scenes, some never-told, all game-changing. We hope you delight in and are inspired by these achievements. They are your victories as much as ours. Tough battles are on the horizon. But we at the Claremont Institute are happy warriors. And we hope we can count on you remaining by our side as we approach 2024. Thank you for all of your support.
Dear Friend,
To paraphrase Christopher Marlowe, the Claremont Institute is the think tank that launched a thousand fellows. That’s about how many up-and-coming conservative leaders and thinkers we’ve educated since we started our educational fellowships programs back in 1979.
For historic context, our inaugural Publius class began with only two fellows in 1979. Since then, we’ve added four more fellowships—Lincoln, John Marshall, Speechwriters, and Sheriffs—and expanded all of them to 14 slots. Today, it’s safe to say that nearly every prominent thinker and doer on the Right has made their pilgrimage through our programs.
We take pride in our fellows, and there are simply too many to acknowledge individually. Let me draw attention to a few recent alumni that I encourage you to keep an eye on:
