<\/a><\/p>\nLong recognized as a prolific producer<\/a> of Fulbright Fellows, Bates “has some distinct advantages in cultivating students’ interests and aptitudes in intercultural exchange and communication,” says Auer.<\/p>\n Foremost among those advantages is the college’s robust study abroad program, which typically benefits nearly two-thirds of Bates students.<\/p>\n Moreover, says Auer, “in both its location and programs, Bates is embedded in a dynamic community that includes many immigrants. And we focus on mutual learning and informed civic action between our students and our local partners \u2014 all enabled by the Harward Center for Community Partnerships and our community-engaged faculty and staff.”<\/p>\n As Bates’ director of national fellowships, Lecturer in English Robert Strong works closely with students applying for major grants like the Fulbrights.<\/p>\n “The curricular integration of community-engaged learning, including practices of student reflection on that learning, position students to articulate their experiences in a sophisticated way, but not in a service-tourism way,” he says.<\/p>\n “The Graduate Fellowship Committee is constantly impressed by the way students articulate their community-engaged experiences in their applications.”<\/p>\n Nicole Bermudez \u201916, a politics major from Lake Forest, Calif., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Colombia.<\/p>\n Daughter of a man born in Colombia and a woman born in Massachusetts, Bermudez is fascinated by questions of cultural identity and its ties to language. “Talking with my father has not only furthered my interest in my own identity,” she says, “but also in how immigration shapes the national, ethnic, and racial identities of individuals.”<\/p>\n In addition to teaching English, Bermudez will engage with her Colombian community by combining her interest in refugees, which was the focus of her honors thesis, and her passion for volunteer work. She plans to work with an organization that supports people affected by violence and displacement in Colombia.<\/p>\n Bermudez is an experienced teacher of English language learners. While studying in Istanbul, she tutored a Turkish student, experience that demonstrated the value of teaching in small groups. She also learned tactics for keeping her students engaged. \u201cI always end a monotonous exercise on a high note so students are encouraged to return to that exercise later on.\u201d<\/p>\n At Bates, Bermudez was a peer math and physics tutor and a residence coordinator, and competed in track and field. In 2014, she was one of Bates’\u00a0first recipients of a national Creating Connections Consortium fellowship, which enabled her to research indigenous groups in Latin America at Columbia University.<\/p>\n Bermudez will pursue a master\u2019s degree in law and diplomacy at Tufts University’s Fletcher School. Thereafter she hopes to conduct research and policy work on immigration and refugee resettlement for individuals from Latin America.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Nicole Bermudez \u201916, a politics major from Lake Forest, Calif., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Colombia. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Ashley Bryant \u201916, an anthropology major from Medfield, Mass., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Brazil.<\/p>\n An education minor, Bryant has worked with English language learners at Lewiston High School and Lewiston\u2019s Adult Learning Center, and tutored local elementary school students in math and reading. Last summer, as an education intern at the Heathfield Community School in Taunton, England, she led classes exploring social justice through the religion, philosophy, and ethics department.<\/p>\n Such experiences have taught Bryant that teaching must “support not only diverse learning abilities but also diverse cultures. By encouraging a shared respect for students’ experiences and cultures, I have learned how to overcome classroom language barriers.”<\/p>\n Bryant plans to incorporate Brazilian poetry, theater, and music into her Fulbright teaching. \u201cI will create an environment of artistic expression and cultural understanding,\u201d she says. \u201cI want students to find identity and empowerment by forming relationships with themselves, their country, and others.\u201d<\/p>\n At Bates, Bryant completed an honors thesis in anthropology examining how the Lewiston public school system perpetuates “Americanness” through the inclusion and exclusion of Somali students’ linguistic and religious identities. She has also been involved in the arts, performing in the College Choir and musical theater productions, and serving as the arts and leisure editor for the campus newspaper.<\/p>\n After returning to the U.S., Bryant plans to study education in graduate school and become a high school social science teacher.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Ashley Bryant \u201916, an anthropology major from Medfield, Mass., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Brazil. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Britta Clark \u201916, a double major in environmental studies and philosophy from Ripton, Vt., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright Study\/Research grant to study philosophy in New Zealand.<\/p>\n Clark will pursue her master\u2019s degree at the University of Otago, where she will study the philosophy of environmental ethics. Specifically, she will analyze the 1991 Resource Management Act, focusing on the balance that it strikes between the European perspective and the perspective of the M\u0101ori people regarding ownership of natural resources.<\/p>\n \u201cThe language and rhetoric of the act,\u201d she says, \u201cdrives in philosophically different directions in terms of the presupposed fundamentals of how humans are to relate to the land on which they live.\u201d The M\u0101ori ethic has traditionally been ecocentric and holistic, she says, whereas “European ethics have an anthropocentric core in which nature is instrumentally valuable for human satisfaction and use.”<\/p>\n Clark will analyze current debates over water rights in New Zealand through a philosophical lens, looking at how the question of ownership is complicated when a resource is finite. “My end goal is to determine the most philosophically tenable stance in this debate given the practical, philosophical, and cultural landscape.”<\/p>\n At Bates, Clark has competed on the Nordic ski team, hosted a program on the campus radio station, and worked in the community as a tutor and college-prep mentor. In 2014, she worked with the Maine People\u2019s Alliance on environmental policy analysis.<\/p>\n After returning the U.S., Clark plans to pursue an academic or legal career in environmental law and ethics. She intends to earn doctorates in both philosophy and law through a dual-degree program.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Britta Clark \u201916, a double major in environmental studies and philosophy from Ripton, Vt., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright Study\/Research grant to study philosophy in New Zealand. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Tara Das \u201916, a double major in politics and in French and francophone studies from Biandronno, Italy, was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Turkey.<\/p>\n Over the last four years, Das has worked as an oral French teaching assistant at Bates and as an English conversation teacher at the Adult Learning Center in Lewiston. She describes her teaching style as a \u201ccollaborative and creative process\u201d that is accessible for students of differing strengths and backgrounds.<\/p>\n \u201cBy teaching students and working with colleagues at a newly established university within the unique East-West cultural cross-bridge of Turkey,\u201d she says, \u201cI will not only be able to share the America I know and represent, but also learn about Turkey\u2019s rich historical and cultural diversity through students\u2019 and colleagues\u2019 perspectives \u2014 people who understand Turkey\u2019s past and are at the forefront of Turkey\u2019s future.\u201d<\/p>\n While in Turkey, Das also hopes to establish or join a club that is focused on women’s health and engages female students in movement and dance.<\/p>\n Born in Oregon, Das spent most of her childhood living abroad in Italy and Switzerland. She spent the winter of 2015 studying in Senegal. In 2014, she won the Albion Morse Stevens Award at Bates for achievement in a foreign language.<\/p>\n At Bates, Das is the president of the Dharma Buddhist Society and a member of the International Club. She has also performed in a number of Bates dance concerts throughout the last four years.<\/p>\n After returning to the U.S., Das plans to pursue a master\u2019s degree in international development in preparation for a career in education program management.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Tara Das \u201916, a double major in politics and French from Biandronno, Italy, was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Turkey. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Charles Kenyon \u201915, a history major from East Amherst, N.Y., received a 2016\u201317 English Teaching Assistantship for Argentina.<\/p>\n Kenyon is an experienced mentor and tutor who, inspired by a two-week trip touring the Argentine education system from primary to university levels, hopes to bring a careful and concerned approach to his teaching while learning about the local people and culture.<\/p>\n \u201cBeing able to communicate effectively is vital, and positive encouragement is the best way to spur improvements in students,\u201d he says. \u201cIt took some practice, but I found that being patient and pointing my students in the right direction helped them to not only complete the task at hand, but retain the information as well.\u201d<\/p>\n As the former co-president of Bates\u2019 film club, Kenyon organized movie screenings on campus and discussion groups around various themes. While in Argentina, he hopes to establish a similar English film club as a way for his students to practice English comprehension and vocabulary skills and as an introduction to new cultures.<\/p>\n At Bates, Kenyon was a three-year member of the men\u2019s track and field team and served as an English tutor for local Somali residents. He served as an after-school assistant at Lewiston Middle School and a classroom assistant at Martel Elementary School.<\/p>\n After Argentina, Kenyon will pursue a master\u2019s degree in education with the ultimate goal of teaching high school history with a focus on Latin America. He hopes to bring what he learns through this assistantship to his own classroom and expand his students\u2019 understanding of the region, which is \u201coften understated in classrooms around the United States,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Charles Kenyon \u201915, a history major from East Amherst, N.Y., received a 2016\u201317 English Teaching Assistantship for Argentina.<\/p><\/div>\n Mary Krathwohl \u201916, a Latin American studies major from Ipswich, Mass., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Spain.<\/p>\n Krathwohl’s interest in intercultural exchange and teaching was fostered during a gap year in 2011\u201312, as she worked at a high school in Chile and assisted with English classes. Last summer, she taught English to adult immigrants in Revere, Mass., following a semester working and volunteering in Guatemala and Peru, where she worked to increase education access in remote communities.<\/p>\n Her extensive prior experience in Spanish-speaking countries has left Krathwohl well-equipped for her assistantship. “Understanding diverse learning styles and individual needs, and knowing how to connect on a personal level,\u201d she says, \u201cwill allow me to be a mentor to my students inside and outside of the classroom in Spain.\u201d<\/p>\n Inspired to return to Spain after a high school exchange trip to Barcelona, Krathwohl plans to help prepare Madrid students for a Global Classrooms project by engaging with them about American studies and other global issues. She hopes to facilitate youth involvement in the community.<\/p>\n While at Bates, Krathwohl volunteered as an English-language teaching assistant at Lewiston High School and a reading and math tutor at the Tree Street Youth Center. She also served as the president of Bates Habitat for Humanity and as a member of both the track and field and the ultimate frisbee teams.<\/p>\n After returning to the U.S., Krathwohl plans to continue working with English language learners with the ultimate goal of creating educational policy changes that support intercultural learning and bilingual education.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Mary Krathwohl \u201916, a Latin American studies major from Ipswich, Mass., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Spain.

She has spent her summers working with Upward Bound, which prepares high school students for college.<\/p>\n LeFevre is an American of Armenian descent. \u201cThe values and customs I grew up with were extremely influential,\u201d she says. \u201cThe prospect of learning about my heritage from students similar in age and through classroom conversations pertaining to history and politics is exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n After returning to the U.S., LeFevre plans to teach high school history. She hopes to eventually attend law school and move into the realm of education reform.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Alexandra LeFevre \u201916, a politics major from Hastings-on-Hudson, N.Y., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Armenia. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Carly Peruccio \u201916, an anthropology major from Manchester, Conn., received a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Luxembourg.<\/p>\n With a minor in French and Francophone studies, Peruccio was inspired to pursue a Fulbright by her experiences learning and teaching language at Bates. Since 2013, she has taught English as a second language at Lewiston\u2019s Adult Learning Center.<\/p>\n \u201cTeaching languages allows me to promote cross-cultural interactions while participating in them,\u201d she says. \u201cAt the Adult Learning Center, my students and I have exchanged ideas and perspectives even though we have different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. I\u2019m looking forward to doing the same in Luxembourg.\u201d<\/p>\n Peruccio plans to form a multilingual book club that combines English and French, which she hopes will strengthen her own French language skills while supporting a cross-cultural exchange with her students.<\/p>\n At Bates, Peruccio completed an honors thesis in anthropology in 2015\u201316 that, based on fieldwork in Morocco, examined what the experiences of female mountain guides reveal about gendered spaces. She has served as a writing and speaking assistant in the Ladd Library Writing Center, as a co-president of the Bates Democrats, and as a copy editor for the student newspaper.<\/p>\n After returning to the U.S., Peruccio plans to hike the Appalachian Trail and to pursue a career in refugee resettlement.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Carly Peruccio \u201916, an anthropology major from Manchester, Conn., received a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Luxembourg. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Madelene Santizo \u201916, an anthropology major from Pomona, Calif., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Spain.<\/p>\n At Bates, Santizo is part of the Bonner Leader program, which pairs students with community partners for semester-long projects. Over her four years, Santizo has worked with the College Access Mentoring Program at Lewiston Middle School.<\/p>\n In Spain, “with the support of community members, I look forward to constructing a classroom that goes beyond the schoolroom walls” during her Fulbright year, says Santizo. “By empowering students to become local active citizens, they will gain the tools to effectively communicate their ideas, think critically about current world issues, and become part of a globally aware classroom.”<\/p>\n Santizo previously lived in Spain for a junior semester abroad, and while there, volunteered with an organization that promotes social justice for Latin American immigrants. During her Fulbright year, she plans to resume her work with this organization.<\/p>\n Much of Santizo\u2019s international experience comes from yearly visits with family in Mexico. Guadalajara became \u201ca second home,\u201d she says, \u201cand gave rise to my love of cultures.\u201d<\/p>\n When she returns to the U.S., Santizo plans to attend graduate school. \u201cI want to help break the cycle of under-representation of minorities in the academy,\u201d she says. \u201cThe international perspective I gain in Spain will allow me to see the education system in the U.S. differently and help me find innovative ways to tackle current issues in academia and the wider world.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Madelene Santizo \u201916, an anthropology major from Pomona, Calif., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Spain. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Rebecca Schwartz \u201916, an American cultural studies major from West Hartford, Conn., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for the Czech Republic.<\/p>\n Schwartz was inspired to pursue teaching after her senior capstone project in high school. “I had the opportunity to educate hundreds of fellow students and teachers about water sustainability,” she says, “and get most of the school excited and involved in a project that I cared deeply about.”<\/p>\n Drawn to the Czech Republic by its rich artistic and cultural history, Schwartz looks forward to “enriching my students\u2019 learning experience by incorporating music, arts, and environmental justice into the lesson plans.”<\/p>\n Schwartz says, “I’m eager to interact with the community and hope to participate in a local music ensemble, and will welcome the opportunity to volunteer with a local orchestra or art museum.” She adds, “As someone deeply interested in patient care and access to quality healthcare, I will also seek out volunteering at a local hospital or medical care facility.”<\/p>\n An accomplished flutist, Schwartz minored in music at Bates, performed with college ensembles, and won a concerto competition. She worked as an art education intern in an after-school arts education program at a community housing development.<\/p>\n Upon returning to the U.S., she wishes to work for a nonprofit that addresses access to healthcare in the United States. Eventually, she hopes to pursue a master\u2019s in public health with a special interest in community outreach and policy reform.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Rebecca Schwartz \u201916, an American cultural studies major from West Hartford, Conn., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for the Czech Republic.

He looks forward to putting his teaching background to use in Nepal.<\/p>\n “I’ll build on my experiences in multicultural education to help foster affirming classroom environments of mutual exchange,\u201d he says, \u201cwhere students can draw on their experiences to expand their skills in speaking and writing English.\u201d<\/p>\n Silverman, who first visited Nepal during a junior semester abroad, was struck by the importance of English-language\u00a0learning there. \u201cIn Kathmandu, I spent a great deal of time working with a local women\u2019s group,\u201d he says. \u201cMost of them spoke of learning English as a crucial foundation for accessing opportunities outside of domestic life, emphasizing economic liberation as a key to personal empowerment.\u201d<\/p>\n At Bates, Silverman is a member of the Bonner Leader Program and is the founder and president of Active Minds, a student club devoted to mental health activism.<\/p>\n After his Fulbright year, Silverman plans to pursue a career in teaching and education-based justice work.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Max Silverman \u201916, an interdisciplinary studies major from Dobbs Ferry, N.Y., received a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Nepal. (Josh Kuckens\/Bates College)<\/p><\/div>\n Maria \u201cLupe\u201d Vargas \u201916, a sociology major from Medford, Ore., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Colombia.<\/p>\n Vargas found inspiration during her time as a teaching assistant during study abroad in Nantes, France. During an exercise with her students, she was surprised by their preconceived ideas about the United States \u2014 but also realized that she had her own preconceptions about France. \u201cThis teaching moment empowered me to have conversations with my students to explore less frequently publicized aspects of both countries,\u201d she reflects.<\/p>\n In conjunction with her educational studies minor, Vargas’ time in France “has prepared me to teach in Colombia because I’m comfortable in front of a class and capable of having discussions that strive to reduce cultural stereotypes,” she adds. “This experience taught me the importance of creating an atmosphere where students feel comfortable sharing their thoughts, questions, and concerns.”<\/p>\n Born in the U.S. to Mexican parents, Vargas is a native Spanish speaker. In Colombia, she plans to join a poetry or literary club to advance the learning of English and, she says, to enable her “to understand Colombians\u2019 personal stories, learn first-hand of their hardships and triumphs, and absorb Colombia\u2019s rich history and beautiful culture.” She also plans to join an intramural soccer team.<\/p>\n At Bates, Vargas has worked as a junior adviser and helped redesign a Bates course as part of the Pedagogical Innovation program. She has taken part in the Bonner Leader Program, tutored at the Tree Street Youth Center, and been a member of the student club Latinos Unidos.<\/p>\n After her Fulbright year, Vargas hopes to purse a master\u2019s degree in education policy or higher education. She aspires to serve as a dean of students at a liberal arts college, and along the way serve as a role model for young Latinos and Hispanics pursuing higher education.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Maria \u201cLupe\u201d Vargas \u201916, a sociology major from Medford, Ore., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Colombia.

He plans to research the long-term effects of inter-community dialogue programs in Ireland and Northern Ireland. “Long-term studies of peace programs are critical to understanding whether these efforts lead to sustainable peace,” he says.<\/p>\n \u201cPeace efforts in Ireland and Northern Ireland,\u201d Claeson continues, \u201cspawned a large variety of locally led organizations that were designed to create community forums for debate, expression, and dialogue.\u201d Claeson will interview staff members at dialogue programs and perform quantitative analysis to determine the programs’ effects on community relationships.<\/p>\n While in Ireland, Claeson also plans to join the University College debate team and a soccer league, and volunteer with local community relations organizations.<\/p>\n At Bates, Claeson was a four-year member of the Brooks Quimby Debate Council and a member of the Bates Democrats. A New England native, he spent summer 2013 working on a campaign to bring universal healthcare to Maine.<\/p>\n After completion of his master\u2019s degree, Claeson plans to enter a doctoral program to continue studying conflict resolution and the potential applicability of Ireland\u2019s model to other post-conflict environments.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Benjamin Claeson \u201915 was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright Study\/Research grant to study nationalism and ethnic conflict in Dublin.<\/p><\/div>\n Katharine \u201cKallie\u201d Nixon \u201914, a religious studies major from Medfield, Mass., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n “Whenever I reflect on what it would mean to teach English in a foreign country, I think first of what it was like to learn a foreign language in a foreign country,” says Nixon, who first visited Sri Lanka during a semester studying abroad. She recalls the challenge of learning Sinhalese, a language brand-new to her.<\/p>\n She took from the experience an appreciation for language as a tool for cross-cultural exchange. Nixon also sees her experiences as a camp counselor and athlete as inspiration for her teaching. In Sri Lanka, \u201cI intend to use visual arts, physical movement, teamwork, and games to actively engage students in learning English,\u201d she says, \u201cas learning a language should mimic the dynamic and fluid nature of the language itself.\u201d<\/p>\n Outside the classroom, she’ll seek to “take on new challenges such as learning local crafts, furthering my Sinhalese language skills, and exploring local conservation efforts in order to connect with a wide spectrum of people.”<\/p>\n At Bates, Nixon was a member of the cross-country and track and field teams, earning three All-American awards, and was named Bates Female Athlete of the Year as a senior.<\/p>\n A candidate for a master\u2019s degree in elementary education, Nixon plans to pursue a teaching career that focuses on building internationally minded students. \u201cI want to teach with the goal of giving students the skills needed to go forth and make their own meaning of the world, rooted in human connection,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Katharine Nixon \u201914, a religious studies major from Medfield, Mass., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Sri Lanka.<\/p><\/div>\n Christopher Opie \u201815, an English major from Arlington, Mass., was awarded a 2016\u201317 Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship for Malaysia.<\/p>\n An education minor at Bates, Opie has spent a great deal of time teaching, as an outdoor education teaching assistant at Lewiston Middle School and as an English Language Learners tutor for high school students at Lewiston Public Library. He currently works for a sustainable-transportation startup in the Cambridge, Mass., area.<\/p>\n Opie hopes that his time teaching in Malaysia will offer the same sort of give-and-take between teacher and student that he has found in his other teaching experiences. He cites \u201ca strong belief that the best education requires both students and teachers to learn mutually\u201d as central to his teaching style.<\/p>\n \u201cI am excited about the unscripted moments,\u201d Opie says. \u201cMy past has shown me that working through such moments of unpredictability and adaptation is essential to becoming an effective educator.\u201d<\/p>\n During his time at Bates, Opie took on leadership roles as the manager of the Green Bikes program and the president of the Cycling Club.<\/p>\n He looks forward to continuing in outdoor education and sustainability work after returning to the U.S.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n2016\u201317 Bates Fulbright U.S. Student recipients<\/h3>\n
