March 5, 2021 Kenyon has again been recognized as a top producer of winners of the J. William Fulbright Fellowship among liberal arts institutions for the 2020-21 academic year, marking the 16th time Kenyon has appeared on the top-producing student list, published in the Chronicle of Higher Education. Last year, nine Kenyon students and one alumnus were selected as Fulbright winners to teach English or conduct research in Argentina, Colombia, France, Germany, Kazakhstan, Russia, South Korea and Spain. Additionally, two students and one alumnus were named as alternates to teach English or conduct research in Argentina, Germany, Spain and Taiwan. “This has been in some ways a challenging year for our winners, as schedules have changed and programs have been canceled, delayed or deferred. In a year when so many of us have been unable to connect with others as fully as we might like, the role our Fulbrighters will play in building strong international relationships is especially critical, and demonstrates Kenyon’s commitment, even in these difficult times, to helping students thrive in a globalized world,” said Thomas Hawks, dean of academic advising, who oversees national fellowships and scholarships at Kenyon.
