Five Posse Scholars were awarded prestigious summer internships as part of the Jeff Ubben Posse Fellows Program. Now in its eighth year, the program provides outstanding Posse Scholars with a unique opportunity to work closely with a leader in their field. Recipients also receive a $10,000 stipend.

California Senator Laphonza Butler, Clearlake Capital Co-Founder José E. Feliciano, Hospital for Special Surgery CEO Bryan Kelly, Moody’s Corporation CEO Robert Fauber, and National Geographic Society CEO Jill Tiefenthaler each hosted and mentored a Scholar this summer as part of the program.

The 2024 Jeff Ubben Posse Fellows are leaders in their communities who have demonstrated academic excellence as Posse Scholars. They are Momoreoluwa Del-Davidson (University of Virginia), Sofia Hegstrom (Colby College), Tyler Reed (Middlebury College), John Saleeb (Northwestern University) and Vincent Vergara (Pepperdine University).

The Ubben Fellows Program was launched in recognition of ValueAct Capital CEO Jeff Ubben, who served as Posse’s board chair from 2007 to 2016. Ubben fellows apply their sophomore year and must have a GPA of 3.7 or higher.
