位于温得和克的纳米比亚科技大学（NUST）副教授兼数字媒体项目协调员奥利弗·瓦塞尔（Olive Vassell）被选为富布赖特美国专家奖获得者。 Vassell is assisting with the journalism program’s curriculum review, establishing a student-run wire service and teaching two courses, Journalistic Writing I and 新闻 Reporting & Writing. 她还将让学生们了解她关于黑人欧洲和非洲侨民的奖学金。

根据富布赖特项目，瓦塞尔是每年通过富布赖特专家项目与国外接收机构分享专业知识的400多名美国公民之一。 获奖者是根据学术和专业成就、在各自领域的领导能力以及促进美国和国外机构之间长期合作的潜力来选择的。 她将从事前沿研究并扩展专业网络，经常继续在国外开展的研究合作，并为未来机构之间的合作奠定基础。

“I’m thrilled to be 在这里 at NUST. My colleagues in the journalism department have welcomed me with open arms, including 亚洲博彩网站 alumna (’11) and NUST lecturer Jordaania Andima, as well as the university community.”

This is a full-circle moment for Andima, who was once one of Vassell’s students.

“The Department of Journalism and Media Technology at the NUST is extremely excited to host Professor Vassell,” she said. “We look forward to working on matters of mutual interest, especially establishing a long-term relationship for student and staff exchange through an MoU and other exciting projects.” 瓦塞尔说，她对自己在新闻教育方面的工作感到兴奋，其中包括设计能够产生最佳学生学习成果和该领域最佳实践的课程。

“I’ve also had the opportunity to engage with students in the classroom, which has been delightful,” she said. I look forward to assisting the program and learning from my colleagues.”

瓦塞尔还将担任两个研讨会的客座讲师。 On September 2, she presented to Master of Journalism and Media Technology students on her forthcoming book, “Mapping Black Europe: Monuments, Markers, Memories,” and discussed the African Diaspora in Europe. 9月15日，她将向数据科学硕士研究生介绍数据及其在新闻中的亚洲博彩网站。

这位教授说，她很享受自己的经历，并将在非洲追求一些个人兴趣。

“On the top of my bucket list is a safari. I traveled to the north of the country to Etosha National
Park, one of the largest national parks in Africa,” she said. “It was thrilling, and I defied the odds by seeing several kinds of famously elusive cats: a pride of lions, two cheetahs and the African wildcat (usually spotted just once a year).”
