I am hoping to throw a few talented LDS resumes into the mix. There is a strong local ward for singles and a strong infrastructure for finding housing etc. The first Honors Program retreat of the Millennium is this Wednesday, February 9, at the beautiful Bennion Lodge in Victor. Ed Williams, a long-time member of the Geology Department, will bring his expertise and some searching questions as we discuss this seeming collision of two worlds. Vans will leave from the west doors of the Taylor Building at 5 pm.
Dinner is provided.
Because space is limited to 30, interested Honors Program students must signup in the Humanities Department office, Taylor 240. Honors Program faculty may also attend on a space-available basis. This is the first installment in a two-semester sequence, offering an entire year of Arabic to interested students, staff and faculty. Anyone interested in studying this region should be aware that other colleges offer language courses to their Freshman and Sophomore students. This means that our students can a year of Arabic here, and one additional semester elsewhere to qualify for this extraordinary opportunity.
