Spike Lee creates fellowship for Atlanta University Center graduates

ATLANTA — Fresh off seeing his mother and grandmother enshrined forever at Spelman College, filmmaker and Morehouse College graduate Spike Lee has announced a new fellowship program for Atlanta University Center graduates.

The inaugural class of five Spike Fellows, all graduating seniors, will receive a paid graduate study summer internship, executive mentorships and $25,000 in student loan payoff and debt relief.

Lee is partnering with the Gersh Agency, one of the leading talent agencies in the world, who will provide full-time job placement at the company this fall for the fellows.
