Sunday 3/9

For the last few days the women in the office and I have working on a preliminary proposal/statement of interest for a State department grant that may fund some faculty exchanges as well as some form of business delegation for next year. The basic concept is to try to provide some language, cultural literacy, and networking opportunities for the academic, student, and community populations in Saratov and Northern Virginia. We learned about it a week before the thing is due. I figure since I wrote my Fulbright app with about 2 weeks notice, this should be right up in our wheelhouse.
If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to speak up.
