Fulbright Visiting Scholar at MIT Meets Noam Chomsky

Alexandru Nicolae, current  Fulbright Scholar in the field of Linguistics/Massachusetts Institute of Technology and his wife Dr. Adina Dragomirescu have let us know about their recent meeting with professor Noam Chomsky, the father of modern linguistics: “Meeting Prof. Chomsky was one of the greatest accomplishments of our life. Professor Chomsky is extremely active and curious about the work of younger researchers like us: we had the great chance to discuss linguistics with Chomsky and to have the opportunity to get feedback from him. We also seized the opportunity and invited him to Bucharest, where a large group of his followers and admirers are anxious to meet him and listen to him. What is impressive is that the entire MIT linguistics and philosophy community is extremely open and eager to engage in scientific debate. A great place to be, indeed!”
