Celebrating our Russian exchange program and the presence of our Fulbright scholar-in-residence. . . .

Year of Russia

1996-1997

"As our first Fulbright scholar-in-residence, you have been an exemplary ambassador of ideas, bringing us an international perspective on politics, history, economics, and culture. You have shown us first hand the effects of globalization and have demonstrated that the new relationship between Russia and the United States is not just an abstraction between diplomats in Moscow and Washington. Through your tireless efforts to reach out to students and teachers here at Mansfield and at the other universities you've visited, you have opened doors of understanding and friendship between the people of our two nations."

Citation from the honorary "Doctor of Humane Letters" awarded to Alexander Kubyshkin by Mansfield University on 10 May 1997.
