Historical Memorandum of Understanding Signed between Jarvis Christian College and “Danubius” University

A new historical Memorandum of Understanding agreement opens the doors for cultural and educational exchanges between Jarvis Christian College (JCC), U.S.A. and “Danubius” University of Galați, Romania, as early as Summer 2022, according to JCC President Dr. Lester C. Newman and “Danubius” Rector Dr. William Harvey who both signed the document on November 18.

Thanks to a $20,000 gift from an anonymous donor, four Jarvis student leaders have the opportunity to attend classes in Romania next summer with tuition, fees, airfare and all expenses covered.

The agreement establishes a mutually beneficial educational and research relationship in all academic fields and disciplines offered at both institutions. Faculty and student exchanges will promote academic and cultural ties, providing a global perspective for participants. The institutions will organize joint seminars, conferences and workshops, exchange program materials and develop joint research and publications.

Following a recent visit in Eastern Europe, Vice President for Institutional Advancement and Development Dr. Kenoye K. Eke, Sr., worked with Rector Harvey to orchestrate the agreement. Professor Harvey is the first African-American to lead a European University.
