Fulbright Program

A number of scholars from foreign countries participating in the Fulbright Program wish to teach in American universities or colleges during the academic year 1951–52, according to word received recently from the Conference Board of Associated Research Councils. Each individual listed has been recommended for consideration by the United States Educational Foundation in his own country and would be eligible to apply for a Fulbright grant covering costs of round trip transportation to the final destination in the United States if satisfactory arrangements for lecturing are completed. The Committee is prepared to provide information regarding the professional qualifications of these scholars upon request to any interested university or college official, and would appreciate being informed when an invitation is extended to any of the scholars involved so that his name may be removed from the list of available persons. Invitations from American institutions are a vital factor in the welfare of the Fulbright Program, the Committee points out, since only through the participation of foreign scholars can the Program become truly reciprocal and mutually beneficial to the countries taking part in the plan.
