FULBRIGHT SCHOWtR, BRINGS STUDENTS A NEW VIEW
Students in Dr. Greg Fowler's American literature and American studies
classes at Penn State Erie, The Behrend College, are getting a more global view of
America from their professor, a Fulbright Scholar who recently returned from a
year of teaching at the John F. Kennedy Institute for North American Studies at
the Free University in Berlin.
"Living in Berlin for a year gave me a real appreciation for the genera
tional differences the German people are facing," said Fowler. In addition to
teaching for two semesters, Fowler gave lectures, training seminars and confer
ence presentations throughout Germany on behalf of the American Embassy and
the German-American Institutes.
German higher education is much different than American colleges and
universities, Fowler reports. In Germany, university courses are free, and students
are not required to register. They attend classes, take the exams and receive a
Schein, or certificate, indicating successful completion of the course. After pre
senting the appropriate number of Schein to the university, students receive a
degree.
In addition to teaching, Fowler served as a member of the Fulbright
commission's selection board, which selects German student-scholars to travel to
the United States. He also persuaded faculty at Penn State's University Park
Campus to take part in the Fulbright commission's Teacher Exchange Linkage
Program, which invited German teachers here to learn more about American
language and culture. In addition, Fowler published three scholarly articles during
his year abroad.
