My Fulbright experience in Slovakia (1989-1991) helped me understand economic and political upheaval firsthand as I lived there through the Velvet Revolution. It opened new opportunities and built a network that has been very helpful to my professional goals. I want to see many more talented CCU students, alumni, and faculty receive these prestigious awards. Darla Domke-Damonte, Associate Provost for Global Initiatives
