The Rev. John G. Magee ’06 Fellowship was established at Dwight Hall in 1987 to maintain the religious roots upon which Dwight Hall was founded.  The Magee Fellow creates opportunities for reflection on the spiritual and moral dimensions of direct service and social action.  The Fellow works closely with the professional staff of Dwight Hall, leaders from the Dwight Hall Cabinet and Student Executive Committee, coordinators of the Social Justice Network, and the Yale Chaplain’s Office through Yale Religious Ministries.  The Magee Fellow will be expected to work in concert with student leaders and staff to promote a culture of action and reflection at Dwight Hall, generate service and justice opportunities for students of faith, foster collaborative efforts between various faith-based and secular student organizations, and nurture the skills and well-being of student leaders. 

The Social Justice Network (SJN) of Dwight Hall at Yale is a coalition of organizations and individuals working for social justice and social change at Yale, in New Haven, and beyond. SJN is dedicated to building a community among those who identify themselves as working for social justice, while helping activists develop skills necessary to achieve this change. SJN is a resource center, providing the space for dialogue and cooperation, creating and maintaining links to other organizations. SJN works to keep activism alive and well at Yale, serving as an informal clearinghouse of activist groups, preserving and passing on the tools and knowledge of effective organizing from one graduating class to the next.
