Pipkin was selected from a national applicant pool to attend one of 17 National Endowment for the Humanities Landmarks of American History and Culture Workshops. The National Endowment for the Humanities is a federal agency that supports summer study opportunities so that teachers can work with experts in humanities disciplines.

In 2011, Pipkin was chosen as a fellow to study the country of Turkey and its impact on the world.
