The competitive, four-year fellowships are awarded each fall by OWU’s Department of Economics and Business and by its Woltemade Center for Economics, Business and Entrepreneurship.

The fellows are selected based on their high potential for success at Ohio Wesleyan and their interest in business-related studies. OWU’s newest Economics Management Fellows (EMFs) are:

• John Cervieri III of Lake Forest, Illinois, who is interested in the areas of business administration and sport and exercise management.
• Kevin Fratz of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, who is interested in business administration and finance economics.
• Renae Frymyer of Ostrander, Ohio, who is interested in business and chemistry.
• Kathy Habian of Medina, Ohio, who is interested in business administration and international business.
• Kory Kaiser of Cincinnati, Ohio, who is interested in economics and finance economics.
• Sophie Leohner of Columbus, Ohio, who is interested in business administration.
• Katie Lucas of New Bremen, Ohio, who is interested in pre-medicine (optometry).
• Cooper Meek of Van Nuys, California, who is interested in business administration and management economics.
• Ben Neher of Greeley, Colorado, who is interested in business administration and politics and government.

• Abigail Trussell of Lewis Center, Ohio, who is interested in politics and government and pre-law.
• Kennedy Watkins of Blacklick, Ohio, who is interested in business administration and computer science.

To be considered for the fellowship program, students must indicate an interest in economics, business administration, management (marketing or finance), accounting, or international business on their OWU applications; have high-school records that indicate a potential for high achievement at Ohio Wesleyan; and complete personal interviews with Economics and Business Department faculty.

Being selected for the EMF program ensures the first-year students receive an academic adviser from the Economics and Business Department, receive sophomore or junior peer-mentors as freshmen, and are paired with professional mentors as seniors.

Fellows also are enrolled in a first-year seminar open only to them. The seminar is team-taught by the entire Economics and Business Department, helping the students to quickly build relationships with their new professors.

In addition, they take a faculty-escorted study trip to a major U.S. city, such as New York, where they meet with distinguished Ohio Wesleyan alumni and other professionals working in the city in business or government.
