Spencer Salas, an associate professor in the College of Education and a former Fulbright Fellow, will discuss his experiences with the Fulbright Program in a Fulbright Alumni Ambassador Workshop at 10 a.m., Wednesday, Aug. 31, in the College of Education, Room 110.
Salas was a Fulbright Fellow to Romania in 1998, to Guatemala in 2007 and to South Africa in 2013. Fulbright grant recipients often return with new perspectives on their fields and fresh ideas for further international engagement. Faculty and administrators will learn about the benefits of the Fulbright Program and the impact it can have personally and professionally.
The Fulbright Ambassador Program trains and utilizes a select group of Fulbright Scholar alumni from the full spectrum of U.S. academic disciplines, higher education institutions and geographic regions to serve as representatives for the Fulbright Scholar Program at campus workshops and academic conferences across the United States.
