Dr. Ericka Tucker, associate professor of philosophy in the Klingler College of Arts and Sciences, has been selected as a 2026 Marc Sanders Media Fellow. Fellows were selected from a pool of 230 applicants through a selection committee consisting of academic philosophers and media industry professionals.

Funded by grants from the Mellon Foundation, the Sloan Foundation, and Princeton University's Center for Human Values and Department of Philosophy, the Philosophy in Media Initiative aims to increase the presence of philosophy in print, audio and video media by training philosophers to write and produce for the public, and by connecting philosophers to editors and commissioners in the media industry. Tucker will be working on a podcast on the intersections of political philosophy, democracy and feminist philosophy.
