James Ford III, who was selected as a Fulbright Scholar during the 2020-2021 academic year, taught and shared his expertise at the University of South Africa in Pretoria, South Africa, from August 2021 to January 2022.
"The Fulbright to South Africa has changed my life forever," said Ford. "It was an honor to share my teaching and performing philosophies. My goal was to help the students establish a strong music foundation that will give them access to more opportunities in their teaching and performing careers."
At the HACU conference, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Academic Programs Ethan Rosenzweig, speaking on behalf of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, thanked HSI leaders for their collaboration and for recognizing the value of the Fulbright Program.
He also commended current Fulbright participants and alumni from and hosted by HSIs for sharing "their expertise, experience, perspective and enthusiasm with their institutions, their communities and their societies."
Since its inception over 75 years ago (https://fulbright75.org/), the Fulbright Program has given over 400,000 talented and accomplished students, scholars, teachers, artists and professionals of all backgrounds and fields the opportunity to study, teach, and conduct research abroad, exchanging ideas and contributing to finding solutions to complex international challenges.
