A fellowship is designed to enable the participant ample opportunities for reflection, introspection, new experiences, and growth. A majority of the Fellows’ time is designated for these purposes (beyond the minimum 25 hours/week required for the DFI Personal Learning Program).

DFI Educators are available for ongoing consultations with Fellows about the use of this Supplemental Time. That said, no Supplemental Activity requires approval of the DFI Staff.

(Please note, however, that even in the midst of their Supplemental Time, Fellows must abide by the rules and obligations of the Dorot Fellowship.)

There are few limitations on Fellows’ Supplemental Activities. Fellows are urged to be creative, to stretch beyond their pre-established limitations and to explore new fields.
