I can’t tell you how many doors have been opened in my life because I speak Latvian – says Laura Dean, a guest lecturer at University of Latvia in the Social science faculty this semester through the Fulbright program sponsored by the US government. Laura Dean has a long history with University of Latvia – she taught the first course at University of Latvia on gender and politics at the faculty. She was also a former international student at University of Latvia in 1999 when she was an undergraduate student from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and again as a master's student in 2007-2008. How did Latvia become a place for your research and work? I was an undergraduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and I went to a study abroad fair my first semester of university. I studied political science and I always knew I wanted to study abroad. There were basically two programs where I could study Political Science in English. I had taken Spanish in high school

frequently, that the relationship between a graduate and a university does not cease at graduation. Those who have once committed to their chosen university, remain faithful, and proudly carry the name of it through the whole of their life . Many UL graduates have shown respect and adherence supporting the University after they finished their studies. Contribution In 1939, Kārlis Kaufmanis graduated from the University of Latvia, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Astronomy Department with a Bachelor's degree, whereas in 1943, he achieved a Master's degree. Kārlis Kaufmanis, Latvia-born Astronomy Professor Emeritus at the University of Minnesota (USA), passed away in 2003. He has left by his will 100,000 dollars for the UL to promote the development of astronomy in Latvia. It has to be used as inviolable capital funds, with interest income paid as scholarships for talented students of astronomy. In his will it is written: “ To my beloved science - Astronomy – for its further

is quite a lot! How did you manage it? It’s simple: publications are not made by a single person. I have good colleagues and we cooperate perfectly well, we work in groups and learn from one another. Academic work is very creative and at the same time it demands accuracy. It might sound strange, but in this sense my work could be compared to that of an actor, who learns their parts and rehearses for many hours. Even their work includes a lot of routine. Similarly it is with research work. It often takes months and even years to create a good article. It’s nice that the work can be split up: there are colleagues, who like making measurements but don’t like writing, and there are those, who are good at writing but don't take part in experiments. There are theoreticians, who can calculate very fast and accurately, and those, who don’t like calculating. And all the activities are always surrounded by ideas– what to do, which direction to go next. For everyone involved it is always something

found a snail-head pin, which is very interesting, because I haven’t heard of any other such pins to be found in Latvia. Another nice finding is an amber button fragment. The number of objects found is quite moderate, but all the structural remnants, fortification walls and other findings indicate that it is a hillfort, which was inhabited in the late Bronze Age– from1100 to about 500BC. It is also possible that it was inhabited even later, during the period called the earliest Iron Age– from 500BC up to the turn of ages, however, no supporting evidence was found in this regard. Prehistory is the earliest period of history and archaeological discoveries are essential reference objects for researchers – the results of their study help schoolchildren get an insight into the relevant time period. In this way children can learn what is family, people and Motherland, how our ancestors lived starting with the first settlers that came to our land many thousands of years ago, as well
