This article briefly summarizes the scope of the Fulbright scholarship program. A biographical sketch of J. William Fulbright indicates how his experiences before he ran for public office and his activities and concerns as a representative and senator shaped the origin of the exchange program. In some depth the article examines the strategy Fulbright employed to produce a politically palatable bill and his tactics of quietly pushing the proposal through to enactment.
