Basque Minister of Education
Visits BSP
Inaxio Oliveri Albisu, the Minister of Education
(Consejero del Departamento de Educación,
Universidades e Investigación), visited the Basque
Studies Program May 25-27, 1996. Accompanied by Javier
Muniozguren (Viceconsejero), Claudio Saizar (Asistente del
Consejero) and Felix M. Goñi, Oliveri toured the
sights of the Reno area with Drs. William A. Douglass,
Carmelo Urza, and Joseba Zulaika.
Minister Oliveri and his entourage honored the Basque
Studies Program at a dinner on May 27th at the Hotel Santa
Fe (Reno) where he presented a beautiful silver plaque to
the Program and Bill Douglass. The plaque
reads:
Eusko Jaurlaritzako Hezkuntza, Univertsitate eta
Ikerketa Sailak, Nevadako Renoko Univertsitateko Basque
Studies Program deritzonari, eta bereziki zuzendari duen
William Douglass Jaunari, Eusko Ikaskuntzen alorrean egin
duten lana dela eta, esker ona adieraziz. Reno, 1996ko
maiatza. Inaxio Oliveri Albisu,
Sailburua.
(The Basque Government’s Department of
Education, Universities and Research expresses its
appreciation to the Basque Studies Program of the University
of Nevada, Reno, and especially to its Coordinator William
Douglass for the work they have done in the field of Basque
Studies. May 1996, Reno. Inaxio Oliveri Albisu,
Minister.)
Dr. Douglass reciprocated with books for the four
visitors, specifically Amerikanuak which he
co-authored with the late Jon Bilbao.
The plaque will hang in a place of honor in the
Basque Studies Program.
