A Taste for Holland Days

Dr. Ken Marcus, a member of The Academy at La Verne, is the recipient of a Fulbright Scholarship that will take him to Holland's Leiden University to teach next spring.

Some might call him a go-getter. Others might call him a man on the move. The truth is, when it comes to research and the opportunity to delve into international scholarship, Kenneth Marcus wants in.

Such an opportunity has recently come his way. Marcus, a founding member of The Academy at University of La Verne was recently notified that he was selected to receive a Fulbright Scholar Award for a Senior Professorship in American Culture. The award, sponsored by the U.S. government, provides a grant for a well-accomplished U.S. professor to teach and conduct research abroad.

Through this opportunity, Marcus is scheduled to spend a semester teaching at Leiden University in Holland, the location of his choice, during Spring Semester 2013.
