"their Fellowship assignments on September 1, 1989. As you may know, Fellows serve as Special Assistants to members of the President's White House staff, to the Vice' President, and to members of the Cabinet or to agency heads. . _ . . On behalf of the Commission, we invite you to consider selecting a member of the-1989-90 class of White House Fellows to serve as your Special Assistant. In our twenty-fifth year, we are... proud that the White House Fellows Program has lived up to its original promise of developing our best and brightest young people for future service to the country. The work assignment is the focus of the White House - Fellowships. The Fellows also take part in an education program which includes bi-weekly luncheon seminars and occasional domestic and foreign travel.

If you are interested in selecting a Fellow for the Fellowship year beginning September 1, please provide the name of a person on your staff who will serve as a liaison to review applications and schedule interviews. I can be reached at 395-4522. A set of files on the new Fellows will be sent to your designee the week of June 5. Interviews will be scheduled the week of June 19.
