Professor William Frech Is Awarded a Fulbright Grant
Frech, a resident of Franklin Lakes, is one of approximately 200 U.S. grantees who will travel abroad for the 1999-2000 academic year through the Fulbright Program. He will lecture on international business subjects to assist in the post-communist transformation to a market economy. He is convener of the international business major and has been a co-director of the college’s study abroad programs in China and the Czech Republic. Before his appointment to the Ramapo faculty, he was an international marketing executive for IBM Corporation. Established in 1946 under Congressional legislation introduced by the late Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, the program is designed “to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries.” Fulbright alumni include President Fernando Cardoso of Brazil; NATO Secretary General Javier Solana; U.S. Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan; Nobel Prize winners Joshua Lederberg, Hans Bethe and Milton Friedman; writers John Updike, Eudora Welty and Joseph Heller; actors Stacy Keach and John Lithgow; musicians Aaron Copland and Anna Moffo; and journalists Hal Bruno, Roger Rosenblatt and Hedrick Smith.
