Seminar On Brazil November 18

TIFTON - A seminar focusing on the country of Brazil will be held at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College on Nov. 18 in the Health Sciences Building, Room 237 from 3 – 4 p.m.  It will be presented by Dr. Jeff Gibbs, Dr. Brian Ray, Lorie Felton, Alan Kramer and Becky Martin.  The seminar is open to anyone who would like to attend at no charge.

The five faculty members, as well as 10 other Georgia educators, spent a month in the summer of 2009 studying Brazil’s culture and history while meeting with some of its government officials, educators, and the country’s local citizens. 

The trip was a result of a Fulbright-Hays Grant from the United States Department of Education Office of International Education.
