Graduate Study in Slavic at UIUC

1) Comments such as yours above do not contribute to
anything except for inciting an Ad Hominem attack.

On the other hand

2) The "betterment of our profession" here was to
point out how certain university programs neglect
"smaller" and "less important" Slavic language and yet
have audacity to claim to teach a "full range." I have
an inclination to think that there *is* some space for
"betterment" here or at least a need for an
explanation about what they mean by "full range" of
Slavic languages (if there is indeed such a term).

Somehow it did sound to me as if you really intended
to make it public. It doesn't matter. I'll send this
to the list as well, so that my answer gets heard, and
I get my point across (for the sake of all the people
who are interested in learning Slovak, Belarusan,
Macedonian or even Sorbian).

And I hope we'll be finished with the topic, because
the last thing I want is to start any kind of
off-topic, inflamatory discussions. Let us stay on
topic and be nice to each other.

Sincerely,
Uladzimir Katkouski
