Professor of Government Carol Drogus attended the International Institute of Education meeting in New York in November. Drogus served her third year on the National Screening Committee for Fulbright grants. The committee reads the applications for a country or countries and selects the finalists whose names are forwarded to the host country for approval. This year Drogus read applications for Brazil; previously she read applications for Argentina, Chile and Uruguay.
Drogus is also the chair of the section on Religiosity and Organized Religion for the Latin American Studies Association, the largest professional organization of scholars of Latin America in all disciplines with over 5,000 members. In that capacity she organized all the panels for the XXV annual international congress, which took place in September in Las Vegas.
