Fulbright Ambassador Pamela Louderback will offer a workshop
on her experience as a Fulbright Scholar to the United Kingdom.
Colorado Heights University
Administration Room 100B
Friday, September 25, 2015 from 11:30am-1:30pm
The Fulbright Ambassador Program trains and utilizes a select group of Fulbright
Scholar alumni to serve as representatives for the Fulbright Scholar Program at
campus workshops and academic conferences across the United States.
Ambassadors have been selected from the full spectrum of U.S. academic
disciplines, higher education institutions, and geographic regions and serve
as official representatives of the Fulbright Scholar program at the events for which
they are selected.
Dr. Louderback is presently Library Director at Northeastern State University. During her
Fulbright Scholar grant in 2010, she conducted a comparative study in government education
policies of Irish Medium schools in Belfast, Northern Ireland in Governance and Public Policy,
at Queen’s University Belfast. While in Belfast, she was able to speak with and learn from
many individuals who provide education at all levels – including practicing primary teachers, primary and post-primary students
enrolled in Irish Medium education, college staff who taught pre-service Irish Medium teachers, and government officials in the
Department of Education Northern Ireland (DENI) tasked with making policy. She also had the opportunity to visit with and have
focused conversations about language revitalization efforts with Mr. Sean Mac Aindreasa - one of the set of nine parents who,
beyond all odds, opened the first Irish Medium school, Bunscoil Phobal Fierste, in Belfast in the early 1970s. A website detailing Dr.
