Alumni Album This page is a forum to encourage communication in the TTS family and to update you about and invite you to TTS events. Contact us! Thanks To Scandinavia would love to hear from current recipients of TTS grants, TTS alumni and from other friends of the TTS program. Please email your thoughts, current activities, photos, and ideas to tts@ajc.org and we will publish them as fit on this site. "Without a scholarship from Thanks to Scandinavia, I wouldn't have been able to realize my one-year graduate studies at the University of Chicago Law School...a year where I will be in a very stimulating academic environment at a premier U.S. Law School and, at the same time will have wonderful exposure to U.S. life and culture. In my opinion studying in the U.S. is a unique opportunity for both personal and professional development." -- Christine Aaris Petersen, TTS grant recipient 2000-2001 from Denmark |
