 We are pleased to announce the arrival of the new U.S. Fulbright grantees for the 2012-2013 academic year. A total of 7 senior scholars and 6 students will teach and undertake research in universities located in Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Sibiu, Braşov, Constanta and Timişoara. Following the tradition of the program, the American grantees participated in an Orientation Seminar, intended to help the new grantees adapt more easily to the Romanian environment. They met high Romanian and American officials, representatives of the U.S. Embassy in Bucharest and of the Fulbright Board of Directors.  As part of the Orientation, the American grantees also participated in the 2012 RAAS-Fulbright Conference “Remapping Urban Spaces – American Challenges”, October 4-6, 2012 organized by the Romanian Association of American Studies and hosted by Ovidius University in Constanta. The grantees had the opportunity to present papers, participate in panel discussions and get acquainted with the Romanian academic environment. After the conference, the whole group enjoyed a visit to the Archeological Museum in Constanta and a wine-tasting lunch at the famous Murfatlar Vineyards.
