Peter Mallozzi, a candidate for May graduation from Hamilton College, has been awarded a Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship (ETA) to Indonesia, where he will teach English.
A music major at Hamilton, Mallozzi is a member and current vice president of the 75-person college Choir and member of the College Hill Singers, who recently completed a concert tour of Italy. He has performed and worked on the stage crew for choir musicals since his freshman year. He sings with the a capella group The Buffers and the Hamilton College Barbershop Quartet. Mallozzi is a resident advisor and a member of the Hamilton Environmental Action Group. In 2008 he was recipient of the Carl B. Menges Essay Prize awarded for the best essay on "Slavery and Freedom."
After completion of his Fulbright Assistantship Mallozzi hopes to return to the U.S. and teach high school music and history.
The Fulbright ETA Program, an element of the Fulbright U.S. Student Program, places U.S. students as English teaching assistants in schools or universities overseas, thus improving foreign students' English language abilities and knowledge of the United States while increasing their own language skills and knowledge of the host country. ETAs may also pursue individual study/research plans in addition to their teaching responsibilities.
Sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, the Fulbright program is the largest U.S. international exchange program offering opportunities for students, scholars, and professionals to undertake international graduate study, advanced research, university teaching, and teaching in elementary and secondary schools worldwide.
He is the son of Elizabeth and Anthony Mallozzi of Dover, Del. and a graduate of Wyoming Seminary.
