“For many in my generation, Vietnam was the polarizing and defining experience in our lives. Now, like the Vietnamese themselves who have determinedly moved on, those of us involved with Fulbright University, both antiwar activists and Vietnam Veterans, find common cause in helping Vietnam and the Vietnamese achieve peace, prosperity and opportunity.”
–Frances A. Zwenig
“On April 29, 1975, my family fled Saigon for the US. I lost my home and my childhood. What I gained is a new home and access to an outstanding education in the US. I support Fulbright University Vietnam so that Vietnam’s brightest minds can experience a world-class education to realize their dreams, catalyze change or lead innovation.”
–Nga Tran
