Albion College German professor Perry Myers left investment banking for education and loves his job teaching college students. But he’s giving it up—temporarily—to spend a year in Paris, thanks to a prestigious research fellowship to the Institut d’Études Avancées de Paris for the 2020-21 academic year.
“I screamed my head off for about five minutes and scared my roommates,” says Elaina Braunschweig, ’18, describing her reaction at becoming the latest Albion College student to receive a Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship. She will spend nine months teaching English in the German state of Brandenburg, which includes Berlin, during the 2018-19 academic year.
