NY Times on Language Education

[Benjamin Rifkin]

Dear SEELANGers:

Today's NY Times features an article by Samuel G. Freedman entitled:

After Sputnik, It Was Russian; After 9/11, Should It Be Arabic?

The article quotes Slavists Dan Davidson and Dick Brecht about foreign
language education in the US.  Here is the link:

With best wishes to all,

Ben Rifkin
