A Process of Global Enlightenment. International Education: Link for Human Understanding.
Armbruster, Robert J., Ed.
In 1976, the Board of Foreign Scholarships brought together Fulbright-Hays alumni of the last 30 years (students, scholars, and teachers who had studied in a foreign country under the auspices of the program established in the Fulbright-Hays Act of 1946. Their purpose was a comprehensive review and assessment of international exchange efforts generally, and specifically those of the Fulbright-Hays program. At ten regional meetings, the topics of discussion were alumni involvement, program implementation, exchange objectives, government and private roles, institutional commitment, the impact of exchange on foreign affairs, professional development and an international community of scholars, and intercultural communication and personal development. Excerpts from the international convocation addresses are included, as is a list of the members of the Board of Foreign Scholarships. (MSE)
