CANDIDATE INFORMATION

INTERNATIONAL UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT EXCHANGE COMMITTEE

[TISWANATHAN, K.S.,

Department of Physics

I'd like to stand for election to the above committee.

I believe that I have the

qualifications to be on this committee.

I was myself once an International

Graduate Student in the United States and still hold interest in the participation

of international students here at SFU.

I'm of the opinion that the presence of

international students both at the undergraduate and graduate level locally

would bring about a better level of understanding of other cultures among us.

I'd like to contribute to implementing a successful policy at SFU regarding

students from other countries.

My own daughter is now studying at the

Institute of Political Science at Grenoble, France as an exchange student and

have come to appreciate the treatment she receives there from the French

Government. ?

I came to understand that the international students in France

are actually eligible to receive subsidy from the Government of France.

I'd like

to learn more about our efforts in promoting exchange of students with other

countries.

IZASLOVE, Jery, Institute for the Humanities

I would like to be nominated, that is volunteer, for membership on the new

Senate Sub-committee for Student International Exchanges.

I initiated, developed and have administered the English department's Exchange

with the University of Giessen, Germany. This is a two-way student exchange

with considerable administrative consequences and I believe I can be of use to

this committee in its new role.

As Director of the Humanities Institute I am involved and will continue to be

involved in developing field schools in Europe and India.

My own scholarly and critical work is in European studies and comparative

literature. I have a sound knowledge of European educational and cultural

institutions of the old, older and new Europe, and have taught in Germany.

I am a charter member of SFU's faculty and have held numerous administrative

positions at SFU, including chair of English, advisor in Student Advice, and Chair

and member of many taskforces on Student Services.

I am interested in the

welfare of students, and in expanding our exchange relationships.
