The participants will have numerous occasions to acquire a first-hand knowledge of French thought and customs through close contact with people from all walks of life, particularly if they take the option of living with a French host family. Since a primary objective of the program is cultural immersion, each participant is expected to communicate in French as much as possible. The program will be conducted at the Universit catholique de l ouest. Upon arrival students will be given an orientation before classes begin. Courses will be taught by the faculty of the Centre International d Etudes Francaises.
All excursions require payment of a supplemental fee.
Activities included in the program are participation in an International Chorus, lectures on art, music, tourist attractions, etc., and, at the conclusion of the program, a Soir e Internationale. Limited financial aid may be available, please consult the Director about this. This fee will be charged directly by Auburn University upon registration during Spring Quarter 2001. However, space is limited, and candidates should make formal applications as soon as possible. Registration will take place with the Director during normal Summer pre-registration.
