Why Ford?

Are you interested in making an impact on your community, your city, your world? Are you motivated to go beyond the surface and what is "required" to learn more regarding topics you feel passionate about? Are you committed to serving others to improve their reality?

The Gerald R. Ford Institute for Leadership in Public Policy and Service has more than 175 student members from a broad range of majors and minors. The program is administered by Dr. Al Pheley, former Robert Wood Johnson Fellow for Policy Research in Senator Jay Rockefeller's D.C. office. In addition, Albion College faculty are specially chosen to teach Ford Institute courses.
