USF World recently honored the USF Fulbright scholars at a Celebration Breakfast. Dr. Allan E. Goodman, President & CEO of the Institute for International Education, which oversees the Fulbright program, was on hand as we were awarded USF World Fulbright medals (to be worn at Commencement).
Speakers included USF System President Judy Genshaft, Vice President for Research, Innovation & Global Affairs Karen Holbrook, Betty Castor (former President of USF and current member of the Fulbright Board), Dr. Allan Goodman, and two USF Fulbrighters.
I must say that I was humbled by the faculty presentations. I was truly inspired by Dr. Darlene DeMarie's efforts to open a day care center in South Africa and by Mr. Michael Foley's work that transformed a dance company/theater in Mexico.
After the breakfast, we moved to the new Patel Center for Global Solutions to listen to Dr. Goodman's International Education Week presentation. (More to follow about this in my next post.)
Pictured with me are USF System President Judy Genshaft, former USF President Betty Castor (who currently serves on the Fulbright Board), Dr. Allan E. Goodman (President of the Institute of International Education, which oversees the Fulbright program) and Dr. Ralph Wilcox (Provost and Executive Vice President of the USF System).
