Profs. receive Fulbright fellowships

By Elise Quinones | November 25, 2008

Seven Dartmouth professors received Fulbright scholarships on Monday to fund research abroad. Christiane Donahue, Ursula Gibson '76, Pamela Jenkins, David Kotz '86 and Michael Mastanduno were named Fulbright Scholars by the Council for International Exchange of Scholars and Ioana Chitoran and Jonathan Smolin received Fulbright-Hays Foreign Area and Language Training Program fellowships. Assistant dean of faculty Jane Carroll, who aids faculty in the Fulbright admissions process, said that the process of naming scholars is very selective and "becomes even narrower especially in bad economic times." Fellowships and scholarships such as the Fulbright are a competitive, Carroll added, but Dartmouth usually does well. "There are a limited number of places that fund pure research, and this is one," Carroll said.
