Our History
In 2011, we recruited students from the Athens area to campaign for our election to the Georgia House of Representatives. Their commitment was truly inspiring, and many desired to continue their work as the agenda turned to passing impactful legislation.
Shortly after, the Spencer Frye Fellowship was born. Over 95% of the campaign staff returned, fulfilling leadership roles within the office. From its onset, the Fellowship was unique and unmatched. Only Rep. Frye had a pool of young professionals managing a legislative office.
Today, in Rep. Frye’s eighth term, the Fellowship continues to introduce young leaders to policymaking and serve the Athens community.
