Apply to be a Student Ambassador

HTC Student Ambassador Program (2023 – 2024)

Who are you, really? Who do you want to be as a leader in today’s world?

The Student Ambassador program at the Howard Thurman Center for Common Ground (HTC) is a leadership development and spiritual formation program grounded in Howard Thurman’s beliefs, principles, and teachings on community building. Our Student Ambassadors are the pulse of the HTC – creating, facilitating, and implementing programs that bring people together and spread the ethos of Howard Thurman in the BU community and the world.

The Student Ambassador program is a maximum 8 – 10 hours/week commitment and the program runs from September to May. The program includes group readings, small group connections, and one-on-one mentorship opportunities, as well as developing a biweekly program open to the BU community. Students do not have to be religious or be part of a faith tradition, though a willingness to engage in interreligious dialogues and have a weekly grounding practice is required. 

Applications for the HTC Student Ambassador Program are due Sunday, April 23rd at 11:59 PM EST. 

Undergraduate students from all majors, schools, and years are welcome to apply. Students from systematically disenfranchised or minoritized backgrounds are especially encouraged to apply.

**The student ambassador program is on hold until further notice. For any questions please email James Eddy (jeddy@bu.edu).
