Dickinson College Invites Tunisian BackReleased by the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs Ouafa Derouiche, one of two Tunisian "Young Ambassadors" participated in MEPI's 2003 "Young Ambassadors" Institute: Study of the U.S. program at Dickinson College, administered by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Ms. Derouiche has been invited back to pursue her thesis topic--a comparison of the legal status of women in the U.S. and Tunisia. Dickinson waived tuition fees so she could conduct research on this topic with Dickinson faculty. Ouafa will self-fund her travel/room and board, and will travel to the U.S. in early 2004. [end] |
