Frank Lin

Frank joined the Civic Consulting Alliance in 2010 as an Associate Civic Fellow through the University of Chicago Public Interest Program.  He is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Chicago, where he majored in Philosophy and Political Science and minored in Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations.

During college, Frank worked at the Roosevelt Institution, the Hudson Institute, Obama for America, the Tobin Project, and the University of Chicago's Political Science Department.  His articles have appeared in the Huffington Post, the Chicago Maroon, and the Washington Post's Youth Voices Blog.  In 2008, Frank received a Humanity in Action Fellowship to study minority rights in Amsterdam and, in 2009, a Department of State Critical Language Scholarship to study Intermediate Arabic in Tangier, Morocco.

After Civic Consulting, Frank hopes to enter law school or a graduate program in philosophy, and eventually pursue a career in which he can merge his interests in philosophy, creative writing, and left-wing political and social activism.
