"Professor chosen to participate on Fulbright project"

Abstract

"Linda Benson, professor of history, is one of 10 professors selected from throughout the United States to participate in a Fulbright Hays Group Project administered through the University of Pittsburgh's Asian Studies Center. Traveling by plane, bus, jeep, boat and horseback, Benson will visit all the major regions of Mongolia in June. The goal of the project is to create a searchable Web-based database aimed at university students, but accessible by anyone interested in the history and contemporary status of Mongolia."
