Norwich University hosts Fulbright research fellow in military diversification By NU Office of Communications January 25, 2021
NORTHFIELD, Vt. Norwich University’s Peace and War Center welcomes Dr. Grazia (Grace) Scoppio as a Fulbright Canada Research Chair in Peace and War Studies for the Spring 2021 semester.
During her Norwich University residency, Scoppio, whose current research is on immigrants’ participation in the military from an international perspective, will network with students, faculty and partner organizations.
“We are fortunate to have the opportunity to work with and learn from Dr. Scoppio,” Peace and War Center Director Dr. Travis Morris said. “She brings a wealth of expertise and knowledge to Norwich University. Our partnership with Fulbright Canada has been an enriching experience for Norwich over the past six years and we look forward to our collaboration with Dr. Scoppio while she is with us this spring.”
Yorkton $15,605 Pat Thompson, President of the Canora branch, said the $5,000 in grant money was much needed and appreciated. “When news of this first came out it was a sigh of relief for many area Legions that were struggling financially, ours included,” said Thompson. “The money will be for operational needs. It will be used to pay monthly utilities and bills to keep the Legion open. Also the money will go to repairs that are needed at the Legion Dugout and contingency for any unforeseen issues that should arise.” Thompson said the history of the Canora branch goes back to before the Great Depression.
