Singapore Mom- Is your son at Indiana U. doing the Slavic Immersion for the summer? I was curious how it is. My daughter was accepted and planning to go, but she got an AFA scholarship to go to the Ukraine (all expenses paid!)- 4 weeks- so she couldn’t pass that up. So her 60 day paid leave turned into 90 days paid leave…Very cool.

I had been reading about the Slavic institute at IU and it looks very interesting. You can read the agenda, list of speakers they bring in, special food nights, and cultural movies. It said that they were getting a lot of ROTC people for the summer that perhaps couldn’t get the Russian in their home college.
