THE De La Salle University Dasmariñas will host 19 Fulbright scholars from the United States and three administrators from the University of Hawaii as part of its International Cultural Exchange Program.

The US delegates will stay at DLSU-D from June 9 to July 6.

Linkages Director Dr. Christian George Franciso said the scholars come from different schools and colleges and are taking Philippine Studies, which covers Filipino language and Filipino culture.

“This includes other domains like for example, they will be attending lectures on the Philippine economy, Philippine spirituality, Philippine governance, and society. So, these are part of the sessions,” Francisco said.

On weekends, the scholars will be taken to different places where they can have their cultural immersion such as the Rizal Park, the Aguinaldo Shrine, and Villa Escudero.

They will also be exposed to local cuisines.

The lectures for the International Cultural Exchange Program will be handled by DLSU-D faculty who are experts in the field of language, culture, society, politics, governance, environment and spirituality.
