I got this link today, and I found it interesting not only because it details the experience of an American Fulbrighter in Nigeria, but because it shows the many prospects of the Fulbright programme beyond just the classroom walls. Evidently – as I’ve seen from the popularity of posts here, and the blog poll – what interests readers of this blog is not always the academic side of the scholar’s experiences, but the subtle, the fun, the personal and the daring.
Find the article here, hat tip to Chris Ogunlowo for the link.

how much of an insight left in the essay. but I really would have liked it if the fullbrighter in the note really had a life in the creeks of the delta, and then share more about his ordeals.

I saw the show live in New York in December 2007 and met the artist (we shared an apartment, long story. :-). It was a really impressive show. The way he was able to play all these characters. Glad the show is still touring.
