We are very pleased to welcome Peter Briggs to the EASF Advisory Board. Peter has just retired from 13 years as director of Michigan State University's Office for International Students and Scholars. He has returned to Eugene, OR where he worked previously for 20 years with International Recruitment at the University of Oregon, including four years as the director. His work at MSU helped inspire the MasterCard Foundation Scholars Program for outstanding low-income, sub-Saharan scholars.
MSU has the largest number of MFSP students among the nine participating North American universities. Three students from the EASF-supported Education and Social Empowerment Program in Kenya—Beatrice Kemboi, Abigael Metto and Hepsiba Chepgngeno—are MSU MasterCard Scholars. (Posing below with other participants in a Michigan State community service project are freshman Hepsiba, second from left, and sophomore Abigail, on the far right.)
Peter has 33 years experience working with international students and helped EaSEP founders Mike and Lillian Boit when Mike was a doctoral student at the University of Oregon in the early 1980s.
