Forwarding from another list. Looks like a good example of successful
partnership between a university and a heritage group.

From: Roman Antoszewski <antora at XTRA.CO.NZ>

Dear Friends,

I am proud to anounce that the University of Auckland starts two courses
in the frames of Polish Studies:

1. Beginner's Polish,
2. Introduction to Modern Poland.

These courses are financed by a Trust created by the local Polish
Community and the University of Auckland (50:50).
The Polish Community representatives participate also by working as an
advisory team to the lecturerers.
The aim of the team is to adjust the program to the actual needs of the
community and to help lecturers in collecting teaching materials,
programs, channeling contacts with other Polish communities, etc.

On behalf of this advisory team I ask you kindly to send me any
information about similar courses conducted in other universities and
institutions.
I would be very much obliged for sending me (also on private e-mail)
any information, addresses, internet pages, etc., concerning similar
initiatives around the world.
I feel also that a discussion on this matter would be very helpful for
us and most likely for other centres interested in Polish culture and
language.

Thanks for your co-opeartion -

Dr. Roman Antoszewski

PS
Please distribute this letter to any other lists or persons interested
in problems raised.
