The Fulbright Program: A Quiet and Efficient Success.

According to the author, today more than 120 nations have Fulbright agreements with the United States. The program is in its 36th year of success. From a mere handful of western European countries, the program has grown steadily, until today more than 120 nations have Fulbright agreements with the U.S. In one-third of these countries, bi-national boards of directors that help guarantee freedom from political pressure govern the program. Whatever the original aims of the Fulbright program, the continuing need for exchange programs is unquestioned in a world still filled with international tensions.
