Summary/Abstract: I had no idea about the Romanian government’s scholarship politics. The National Bureau for Scholarships Abroad was set up in 1998, and I had been to the States on scholarship from 1995 till 1996. Everything was still at the beginning; people either improvised a lot or followed old procedures. We were the Guinea pigs for an entire host of education experiments.
