brought to this position much knowledge and experience not only in International Education and Asia Studies and Initiatives, but with the inner workings of the USG SCIE (System Council for International Education). As the most far flung of all of us down in
Valdosta, David was always at all programs, including the annual faculty development workshops in Atlanta. We look forward to his continued influence in the Asia Council, especially in the area of study abroad.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
