Fulbrights to Be Discussed Today
By Dennis Farrey
Both graduate and undergraduate students interested in studying overseas have been invited to attend the Fulbright Forum at 4 p.m. today in Fraser Theater.
Applications for the 1962-63 school year are due Oct. 20, said J. A. Burzle, professor of German and KU chairman of the Fulbright program. Only graduate students are eligible to participate but undergraduates are encouraged to attend the forum to learn the program requirements and how to prepare for attaining the scholarship.
"THROUGH THE Fulbright program," Prof. Burzle said, "our country has a chance to introduce foreign lands to the best of American youth, both academically and personally.
"At the same time it gives our students a chance of broadening their intellectual and human horizons in a way never possible before the program was initiated ten years ago," he said.
FULBRIGHT SCHOLARS may study in any of the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria Belgium and Luxembourg, Brazil Burma, Chile, China, Denmark Ecuador, Finland, France, Germany Greece, Iceland, India, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Portugal Spain, Sweden, Turkey, the United Arab Republic, and the United Kingdom.
About 100 KU students have been selected as Fulbright scholars in the past 10 years, Prof. Burzle said, with 14 selected last year. Each year 1,000 grants are offered to U.S. students.
There are four basic eligibility requirements for the program:
·The student must be a United States citizen at the time of application.
- He must have a bachelor's degree or its equivalent before the beginning date of the grant.
- He must have sufficient knowledge of the language of the host country to carry out the proposed study and to communicate with the country's people.
- The student must be in good health.
APPLICATIONS for this award are first interviewed by an eightman faculty committee, Prof. Burzle said.
Faculty members on the committee in addition to Prof. Burzle are Reinhold Schmidt, professor of voice; Carlyle S. Smith, professor of
anthropology; Byron Leonard, professor of zoology; James Maloney, professor of chemical engineering; Reinhard Kuhn, assistant professor of Romance languages; Richard B. Sheridan, associate professor of economics; and Oscar E. Haugh, professor of education.
Following the faculty committee interviews, the applicants' records are sent to the Board of Foreign Scholarships in Washington, D.C., and finally overseas to a bi-national committee for study, Prof. Burzle said.
