Erika Schultes, ETA Fulbright Student, participated in the National Conference for Students of English Studies at the University of Suceava, where she spoke on Friday, May 8th on the theme of “Always in Between” – Belonging and Exclusion across the Borders of Language, Culture, and Identity.

The conference welcomed students from Bucharest, Iasi, and Cluj, as well as Suceava, whose contributions addressed notions of belonging, estrangement, and variety of related issues considered in individual works and texts from Anglophone cultures. 

“In my address to the participants, I drew on literary examples as well as history and personal experience to challenge students to make meaningful contributions toward a more inclusive global community.” - Erika Schultes
