On Monday, October 20th, from 4pm, the Fulbright Educational Advising Center hosted a special live online seminar titled “Mentoring Romanian Students in the U.S.: A Fulbright Scholar’s View”, given by our distinguished guest, Dr. Gary Holcomb, Professor of African American Literature at Ohio University. Dr. Holcomb spoke about his experience as a mentor to Romanian students in the U.S., the institution of mentoring, differences between the Romanian and American education system and the successful careers some of his Romanian students went on to pursue. He kindly took questions from the audience – mainly M.A. students and graduates - offering expert advice on criteria worth considering when choosing a graduate program in the United States.
