    Appointment of the 1991-1992 White House Fellows
    June 4, 1991

        The President today announced the appointments of the 1991-1992
    White House fellows. This is the 27th class of fellows since the program
    was established in 1964. Sixteen fellows were chosen from nearly 800
    applicants who were screened by 11 regional panels. The President's
    Commission on White House Fellowships, chaired by Ronna Romney,
    interviewed the 32 national finalists prior to recommending the 16
    persons to the President. Their year of government service will begin
    September 1, 1991.
        Fellows serve for 1 year as members of the White House staff or as
    special assistants to members of the Cabinet. In addition to the work
    assignments, the fellowship includes an education program that parallels
    and broadens the unique experience of working at the highest levels of
    the Federal Government. The program is open to U.S. citizens in the
    early stages of their careers and from all occupations and professions.
    Federal Government employees are not eligible, with the exception of
    career Armed Forces personnel. Leadership, character, intellectual and
    professional ability, and commitment to community and national service
    are the principal criteria employed in the selection of fellows.
        Applications for the 1992-1993 program may be obtained by contacting
    the President's Commission on White House Fellowships, 712 Jackson
