October 28, 2006. At the annual Welcome Meeting for fellows of the Fulbright exchange program in Frankfurt, organized by the Fulbright Alumni Association for returning German students and arriving American students, Consul General Powell joined Fulbright Commission Executive Director Dr. Rolf Hoffmann and other VIPs in welcoming the large group of over 100 guests who attended. Powell emphasized that almost 1/3 of the more than 150,000 people who have come to the United States from Germany as guests of the U.S. Government under various exchange programs are Fulbrighters. Powell appealed to the students to continue being Ambassadors for German-American friendship and to stay in touch with each other. CG Powell also introduced the Department of State Alumni Program web page for all Alumni of U.S. government-sponsored programs. |
