"Those who teach and those who support those who teach"

Please share any examples where "21st century… Continue

I was whisked away… Continue

Number One: Ancient Beginnings

Number One: Ancient Beginnings

And so the blog begins. I am leaving for Kyrgyzstan this Wednesday, arriving 3 AM on Friday morning, 10 April. My husband and I spent a year in Kyrgyzstan 2003-2004. He was a Fulbright Scholar and I a visiting academic. While there, I also consulted with the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs, developed projects for Global Visits and developed the American Studies in Central Asia Symposium. It is now in its sixth year. I have… Continue
