The Center for African Studies coordinated a school visit featuring Fulbright Scholar Faraja Ngogo at a local middle school for a series of five presentations. Speaking to groups of approximately 20 to 40 seventh-grade students (ages 12–13), Faraja introduced students to Tanzanian culture, daily life, and language. The 35-minute sessions provided an engaging, interactive opportunity for students to learn about East Africa and expand their global perspectives.
