Polish Center director gets Fulbright

Hauser

wa Hauser, director of the University's Skalny Center for Polish and Central European Studies, has been chosen as a senior Fulbright Fellow for the 2001-02 academic year. She will teach seminars on American culture and on the political films of Hollywood at the American Studies Center of the University of Warsaw, beginning in September.

A native of Poland, she wrote the original proposal that established the Center for Polish and Central European Studies at the University in 1994. Last year, the center was renamed for the Louis Skalny Foundation.

A graduate of the University of Warsaw and Yale University, Hauser earned her doctorate in anthropology from Johns Hopkins University.

Hauser will also be a participant in a seminar in the Republic of Croatia on nationalism and ethnicity in Eastern Europe. The sessions in Zagreb and Dubrovnik will offer a Croatian perspective on the evolution of Southeastern Europe.
