2009-2010 Luce Scholars, who arrived in their countries of placement in late August 2009, share their experiences in Asia.
On December 4, 2009, David Huebner, 1984-85 Luce Scholar (Tokyo, Japan), was sworn in by Vice President Joe Biden as United States Ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa. Mr. Huebner is a lawyer who had been with the law firm Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton, LLP, serving as their chief representative in China.
The 2010-2011 Luce Scholars competition has attracted strong interest from 159 candidates, a record number of nominations representing 63 participating institutions. The nomination deadline this year was November 2. The candidates will be interviewed in November and December, and will be notified, via letter, whether they advance to the final round, in the week of January 11, 2010. Final selection meetings will take place in New York City and San Francisco in early February.
Please watch "America's Role in the Asian Century", a Luce Scholars Seminar.
Six weeks into their placements throughout East and Southeast Asia, 2009-2010 Luce Scholars had an early assessment meeting in Hong Kong October 19-22, 2009.
