CEL and CFAR Scholars are an elevated student leadership role. Scholars are liaisons with the student body and provide additional support to CEL Leadership, Program Faculty, and student team leaders within the CEL.

All Scholars hold weekly office hours. This time is dedicated to assisting students enrolled in CEL courses, either with questions pertaining to specific courses or with the skills required to be successful in those courses. Scholars all have subject matter expertise areas.
