In Boston University Humphrey Fellowship Program

MIT Endicott House was recently featured in the Humphrey Fellowship Program at Boston University, which described how Humphrey cohorts from BU, MIT, and Cornell gathered at the Dedham estate for a full-day re-entry workshop focused on preparing Fellows to transition back to their home countries and cultures. The article highlights Endicott House’s serene chateau setting, structured small-group discussions based on Gary Weaver’s “The Process of Re-Entry,” and interactive activities that helped Fellows reflect on their year in the United States, share experiences across campuses, and build a sense of closure and support as they planned their next steps. Read an excerpt of the article below:

On Friday, April 7th, the cohorts of MIT, Cornell, and BU gathered at Endicott House in Dedham, Massachusetts for a full day of activities focused on Fellows’ re-entry into their respective countries and cultures. Endicott House is a Normandy French-style chateau with 25 acres (100,000 square meters) of gardens, lawn, woods, and ponds that MIT owns and operates as a conference center.
