#IEW2017 International Education Week at USFSP - "Rule of Law and Civil Society in Macedonia"

I was delighted to share my experiences during my Fulbright to Macedonia during this year's #IEW2017 events at USFSP.

Thanks to Wendy Baker, Director of USFSP Global Initiatives for the invitation.  (See more about International Education Month at USFSP   here)

And thanks to all those who came out to learn more about my award: "Rule of Law and Civil Society"

here are some of my Macedonia travel books that I brought for "show-and-tell"

and here is the posted that I created for the USF World/Fulbright Association Welcome event earlier this semester ...along with other "show-and-tell" items, the Mother Teresa gift from the University of Tetova as well as the Seal of the South East European University

The event flyer, featuring colleagues from the University of Tetova and South East European University:

Welcoming Fulbright Scholar from Vietnam -- Quyet Nguyen -- in my American Government class at USFSP #IEW2017

What a pleasure to welcome Fulbright Scholar from Vietnam - Quyet Nguyen - to my American Government class during #IEW2017.

He shared with us more about the government and politics of Vietnam, offering a comparative perspective.

Quyet is at USFSP this semester, hosted by the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Frank Biafora, who was himself a Fulbrighter to Vietnam. 

What an incredible international network of scholars fostered by the Fulbright Program!

Article Published in Justicia: International Journal of Legal Sciences, published by University of Tetova

During one of my first meetings with the Law Faculty (see blog post about first meeting at UT and blog post about meeting wtih the Dean of the Law Faculty) at the University of Tetova (http://unite.edu.mk/en/) I was invited to submit an article to the journal published by the law faculty (Fakulteti Juridik):

Justicia: International Journal of Legal Sciences

Vol. 5, No. 7 (7/2017) includes an article that provides an update to my study of Congressional participation as amicus curiae before the US Supreme Court: "Congress Befriends the Supreme Court: Congressional Participation as amicus curiae before the US Supreme Court."

The journal was just released at a conference organized by the Law Faculty this week.

Thank you to Prof. Jusuf Zejneli and the editors and reviewers. I am delighted to have my research included in this publication.
