By Betty Higgenbottom
Of the Emerald
Seven University professors have been
awarded Fulbright fellowships for research and
teaching abroad during the 1982-83 academic
year.
The recipients are Ralph Salisbury, Frederick
Newberry, John Haislip and Barbara and Christer
Mossberg of the English department; Larry Irvin of
special education and Allan Kays of geology
Salisbury, who is part Cherokee Indian and
has been published in an anthology of contem
porary Native American writers, will be teaching at
the University of Frankfurt in Germany during
spring term He will then travel to the University of
Copenhagen in Denmark where he has been
invited as a guest lecturer
Newberry will go to the Georgian Republic in
the Soviet Union to teach at the University of
Tbilisi in January 1983. But because of tight
security in the Soviet Union and the fact that his
trip was arranged through Moscow, his hosts in
Tbilisi don't know he is coming While Newberry is
preparing to teach American literature, he may
end up teaching "whatever they want me to
teach,” he says.
Haislip will be teaching classes in contem
porary poetry at the University of Tubingen in
Germany in a faculty exchange program Profes
sor Hans Brochers will teach at the University
spring term

Prof has Georgia on his mind
By Betty Higgenbottom
Of the Emerald
English professor Frederick
Newberry says the approval of
his Fulbright grant to teach in
the Soviet Union is "one of the
mysteries of the Soviet bu
reaucratic system
Newberry, who will travel to
the Soviet republic of Georgia in
late January, was among the ten
out of 44 applicants approved
by Moscow
"I have no idea of the criteria I
was judged on or how they went
about screening me,” Newberry
says
His first and only choice of
locations was the State Univer
sity of Tbilisi in the Georgian
Republic Because Georgians
live in the economic and cultural
center of the country they are
"the most hostile to the Soviet
government and the only ones
who can get away with it,"
Newberry says
Literature professors aren't

English assistant professor Frederick Newberry was granted a
Fulbright fellowship to teach in Soviet Georgia next year
normally selected to go to the
Soviet Union, so Newberry con
siders himself fortunate He is
preparing to teach courses in
American literature and writers,
but because Soviets are so cur
ious about the lifestyles and
people in the United States, he
may find himself teaching
something entirely different
People in the Soviet Union
think about literature and au
thors much differently than do
people in the United States.
Newberry says
"The books and writers that
they read, love and quote are
the ones we study here in
school," he says
Several months ago New
berry attended an orientation in
Washington, DC, where he
was "coached on how to act.
what to say. and how to answer
questions about the Reagan
administration Newberry says
that many ot the academicians
telt insulted at being propagan
dized in this manner, but un
derstood It was a necessary
measure
Once at the University ot
Tbilisi, Newberry will be living in
a dormitory built especially for
professors His family will not be
accompanying him. apparently
the situation in Russia is much
better for singles or people
traveling alone
Newberry is admittedly a little
scared but thinks ot the trip as
an adventure "It's not everyday
that one gets to travel to the
USSR he says
