October 20, 2024In October, Scott Lademan will present: “Slowing Down: A Fulbright Year in Sweden”.
Scott spent the 2022-2023 academic year as the Fulbright Distinguished Chair in American Studies at Uppsala University in Sweden. It was a marvelous but also occasionally challenging time for him and his family, with new places to see, new foods to try, and new people to meet. This presentation will recount some of the sites they visited, the perhaps surprising Vietnam War research Scott undertook, and the more balanced Swedish value system his family came to appreciate.
