The University of Minnesota was recently honored as one of the top institutions in the nation for Fulbright Fellows, according to rankings released by The Fulbright Program.
The Fulbright Program is an internationally recognized fellowship opportunity for students to study, teach, and conduct research abroad. This prestigious exchange program is awarded to students based on merit and demonstration of exemplary leadership.
Meet two of this year's Fulbright recipients from CLA:
Daniel Groth, a 2009 summa cum laude graduate is the recipient of an English Teaching Assistant Grant to South Korea. Groth intends to pursue medical school in the future and will be learning about South Korea’s health care system during his stay. A guitarist, he will also take lessons on the 12-string kayagum, a traditional Korean musical instrument.
Zachary Saathoff, a 2009 graduate of the School of Music with a degree in violin performance, will be headed to Austria to study violin with faculty at the Künstuniversität Graz. He intends to play in a chamber music ensemble, learn about Austria's rich musical history and explore connections between music and art.
