Scholars waiting for Fulbright selections
By CAROLINE REDDICK Staff writer
Some KU graduate students and faculty are checking their mailboxes daily hoping to receive an acceptance letter for a 1987-88 Fulbright-Hays scholarship.
"I jump every time the phone rings," said Mary Elizabeth Gwin, director of the office of study abroad and Fulbright adviser. "We should be hearing any day now who's been selected."
Fulbright-Hays scholarships are an exchange program between the United States and about 95 other countries, Gwin said. Scholars interested in participating write a proposal on what they would do if they were given the money to study abroad for a year. The proposals are reviewed by the U.S. Board of Foreign Scholarship and recommend the best proposals to them, where the final decisions are made. The scholars who are accepted spend a year in another country researching, lecturing, or doing both.
At least two KU faculty members already have been chosen to receive 1987-88 Fulbrights.
"They get full travel costs, all tuition, room and board, and a stipend that usually covers some extra travel," Gwin said. "They're also treated like royalty when they're in these countries because they're really high-powered scholars."
Bezaeleel Benjamin, professor of architecture and architectural engineering, recently was notified that he had received a 1987-88 Fulbright lecturing award. He will be on a year's course of advance in the field of architecture, nineteen years at the Technion, a technological insti tute in Haifa, Israel.
"What excites me about this Fulbright is that it is a teaching one," Benjamin said. "I like to teach, and seeing that it is the only School of Architecture in Israel, I think it will be very exciting, very challenging. I expect I will meet some exceptional students.
students here at Kansas as well," he said.
"Of course. I teach exceptional
Stephen Grabow, professor of architecture and urban design, also received a Fulbright grant. Grabow will spend a year as a visiting research scholar at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Gwin said the Fulbright program was first proposed to Congress in 1946 as a way to allow other countries to repay some of their World War II costs.
"Some of the countries paid off their debt early, but still supported the Fulbright program," she said. "For instance, in Germany, they want Americans to come. They're in a position where they want to court Americans to come over there and see how friendly they are, and just to promote an exchange of ideas.
"The principal purpose is to promote cultural understanding and try to foster ties between the United States and other countries in all areas of study, from the sciences to performing arts," Gwin said.
