Fulbright Professor at Comenius
last modification : 2017. március 13.
A distinguished UNM professor (Gabriel Melendez) visited the Comenius Faculty on November 22. This was a unique moment for our faculty. He participated in an English lesson that the freshmen attended in huge numbers and had a lecture on his home university, the University of New Mexico.
We were all surprised when he started his lecture in Hungarian, telling us that he is from "New Mexico," which is not new and not Mexico. This unique English lesson was the opening program of his one-week stay in Sárospatak. During his stay he visited the local sights as well as with minority groups. As a closing of his stay, he participated in an American Night celebration that was organized by our students.
I really appreciate the support and the effort of our Dean to make this visit happen, which Gabriel referred to as "unforgettable."
