C O N T I N U A T I O N OF PROGRAM FOR STUDY IN FRANCE (6) On March 20, 1968, the Board approved a program for study in France by students majoring in French or the teaching of French. It has been conducted as a joint effort between the University of Iowa and the University of Illinois. The University of Iowa does not wish to continue in the program, but the Department of French, with the concurrence of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, considers the program highly successful and recommends its continuance. It is anticipated that about forty Illinois students (including three from the Chicago Circle campus) will be enrolled in the program for the 1971-72 academic year. Instruction will again consist of an intensive five-week orientation program from mid-September to late October to be held at the University of Grenoble, followed by the remainder of the academic year at the University of Rouen where students will take special courses in language, literature, and civilization. Agreements will be executed with the Universities of Grenoble and Rouen to provide the instructional programs. A member of the Urbana-Champaign faculty will be present with the group as P r o g r a m Director and to insure the quality of instruction. Participants will live with French families and take occasional field trips to places of cultural and historical significance. Students successfully completing the year's program will be granted a full academic year of credit (approximately thirty semester hours). The costs of instruction will not exceed those that would be incurred at Urbana-Champaign campus. Students will incur approximately the same living costs as they presently do at the Urbana-Champaign campus, plus travel and personal expenses. T h e total estimated costs, exclusive of tuition and fees, will be approximately $1,784 for the 1971-72 academic year.
