The Lilly Fellows Program in Humanities and the Arts seeks to strengthen the quality and shape the character of church-related institutions of higher learning in the twenty-first century.  The Lilly Fellows Program in Humanities and the Arts consists of three distinct yet integrated initiatives:

• A two-year residential postdoctoral fellowship program at Valparaiso University for young scholars who wish to renew and deepen their sense of vocation within a Christian community of learning
• A graduate fellowship program that supports, during their first three years of graduate school, young men and women of exceptional academic talent who are exploring vocations in church-related higher education
• A national network of church-related colleges and universities interested in exploring Christian understandings of the nature of the academic vocation

The Program is based at Christ College, the interdisciplinary honors college of Valparaiso University in Northwest Indiana.
