Honors Alum Nathan Shearn, a 2020 Fulbright recipient, earned a grant from the U.S. Embassy (affiliated with Minsk State Linguistic University in Belarus) to lead weekly workshops for teachers and professors. Topics included cultural diversity, strategies for different learning styles, and the educational system in the U.S..
