This page has been pretty quiet for a while.
Senator Fulbright was born 115 years ago -- on April 9, 1905. While we missed the actual date (because of Covid), perhaps it would still be nice to share how a Fulbright scholarship changed your life.

Senator Fulbright was born on April 9, 1905. For the last few years, Fulbright grantees and alumni have gathered together on the anniversary of his birth to celebrate Fulbright's idea, to share how a Fulbright scholarship changed lives, and to meet potential partners for current or future projects. What are your plans for Saturday, April 9?

To Ambassador of Peru to the United States:

Your Excellency:

I write as a former Fulbright Scholar in Peru during 1974-75 during which I had the great pleasure of conducting research on the and fiscal and equity implications of migration to Lima in cooperation with the Consejo Provincial de Lima.

My year in Lima was among the most formative and productive of my life. With my wife and two young children, we experienced everyday the warmth and cordiality of the Limenos as well as Peru's cultural richness and extraordinary physical beauty. These experiences helped shape my passion of international affairs and global studies that continues to this day at both a professional and personal level. For that, I am eternally grateful to the Fulbright program which made it all possible.

Cordially,
Allen L. White, Ph.D.
