Summary/Abstract: The present text discusses the Americanization of a Romanian student organization, the Association of the Christian Students from Romania, through the official bulletin of the Bucharest branch. The text argues that, although the Wilsonian plan of pacification and Bolshevik containment as exercised through missionary bodies such as YMCA/YWCA or student Christian organizations initially worked in the Romanian society, eventually the Romanian student initiative known as ASCR succumbed under the pressure of xenophobic nationalism.
