  • Alumni Student Newsletter Draft
    Summer 2009 Edition FULBRIGHT FOCUS The AMIDEAST Alumni Newsletter of the Fulbright Foreign Student Program ACCESS Students in Ramallah Welcome Secretary of State Clinton The following article, about U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s trip to the Middle East in March, will be of interest to Fulbright alumni in the region. The English Access Micro Scholarship Program is sponsored by the U.S. State Depart- ment’s Office of English Language Programs, a sister office to the Office of Academic Exchange Programs, which sponsors the Fulbright Program. On March 4, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, accompa- nied by Special Middle East Envoy George Mitchell, visited an English Access Microscholarship Program class in Ramallah to participate in a classroom discussion with students. The U. S. Department of State-sponsored English Access Microscholar- ship Program provides scholarships for after school language instruction for bright, disadvantaged 14–18 year olds. In Ramallah, the program is administered by AMIDEAST. Secretary Clinton spoke to the students about Women’s History Month and some of her own heroes growing up as a young person in America. “They were talking about Sally Ride, who is one of the people I most admire in our country. I told them that many years ago, I had the idea that I could be an astronaut—which obviously was never going to happen for a million reasons—but that a young woman named Sally Ride had that dream and kept work- ing hard and achieved it.” Secretary Clinton’s visit was memorable to these young people. “I will never forget this amazing and beautiful day in all of my life,” declared one student.
