“Being selected as an ACE Fellow is both a personal honor and a recognition of the transformative work happening at Malcolm X College,” Walker said. “I look forward to learning from leaders across the country and bringing those insights back to serve our students and community with greater impact!”
As a 2025-26 ACE Fellow, SVP Walker will participate in a year of immersive learning and mentorship. The fellowship year also includes retreats, policy and leadership training, and a customized placement at another college or university—offering fellows the opportunity to gain hands-on executive-level experience.
