You could've written him personally. Why did you post it here?

Dear Professor Brintlinger,
I have just read great news about the availability of financial support
for qualified grad students. I have taken GRE exam the 2nd time (after
taking a special Kaplan course) on October 29th-this time my Verbal score is
130 points higher than in January, and I feel the essay's grade will be no
less than 4 (it will be reported to your department in 2-3 weeks). Are there
any chances that I will be considered as " a qualified student' for Au.
2010? Or do I have to take the GRE once more to increase my general score
(it is now 460-verbal, and 320- Math). In spring you wrote that I have to
consider other universities for enrollment. But I know and love the OSU for
the last ten years, and my husband successfully works here, so I can and
wish to apply only to the Slavic Department of the OSU.
I continue to organize singer-song writers' concerts at my home.We just had
a great one with A.Brunov (St-Petersburg)-songs were based on the poetry by
A.Akhmatova, Khodasevich, and other poets of "silver century." I invite you
to visit another concert on November 25th, 7pm, with performer Lores from
Moscow. Since my husband and I do it voluntarily during last 6 years, I'd
like to share with you this amazing feeling of pure joy and happiness from
Russian songs and culture.My invitation does not imply any inconveniences or
obligations, art is free and brings joy to everybody!
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon,
Best wishes,
Luba Khramtsova

Subject: [SEELANGS] Graduate Programs in Literature, Cultural Studies and
Linguistics
The Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures at The
Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, which offers the M.A. and Ph.D.
degrees with specialization in Russian Literature and Cultural Studies or
Slavic Linguistics, announces the availability of financial support for
qualified new graduate students in the 2010-2011 academic year.
With a faculty of twelve, including specialists in Slavic literatures, Film,
Women's and Cultural Studies, Slavic and Balkan linguistics, and Second
Language Acquisition, the Department is one of the largest and most
successful in the field. The more than thirty graduate students come from
all over the country and the world. They work closely with faculty in the
Department and across the University in pursuit of academic excellence.
Opportunities to complete advanced research and present and publish work in
symposia and other fora and to teach a variety of courses in the disciplines
of the Department enhance our Department’s graduate student experience.
OSU and our Department offer Graduate Associateships, University
Fellowships, Foreign Language and Area Studies Title VI Fellowships, and
other financial aid. GA and UF awards are open to students from all
countries. Both incoming and continuing graduate students are eligible for
up to five years of financial support. Well-prepared Graduate Teaching
Associates regularly teach courses in the Russian, Czech, Polish, Romanian,
and Serbo-Croatian languages, Russian literature, Russian film, and Russian
culture on the undergraduate level, and occasionally teach other courses,
such as Polish or Czech or Balkan Slavic literature and film for
undergraduates, and the Bulgarian and Ukrainian languages. All new GTAs
take a two-week training seminar before classes begin and receive further
teacher training and education throughout the school year. A Departmental
atmosphere of mutual respect and assistance between faculty and graduate
students contributes to the teaching success of our GTAs. The mentoring and
training our GTAs receive have contributed strongly to an excellent record
of postgraduate placement in academic jobs for our Ph.D.s.
The OSU Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures is
part of a major University-wide program in Slavic and East European Studies,
with faculty in many fields, including Geography, History, History of Art,
International Studies, Law, Linguistics, Music, Political Science,
Sociology, Theater, and Yiddish Language and Literature. The program is
supported by a very strong research library, with over 1,000,000 titles in
Slavic and East European Studies, as well as the world's largest repository
of medieval Slavic texts on microfilm. The cost of living in Columbus is
moderate, and the city is easily accessible from almost anywhere in the USA
and abroad.
The application deadline for international students who wish to be
considered for University Fellowships is November 30, 2008, and for GTA
consideration it is January 15, 2009. The deadline for domestic students is
Jan. 15 for all awards. Applications for admission received after January
15 may be considered if spaces are available. Electronic applications are
required; go to http//www.gradapply.osu.edu.
For additional information on applying, see
http//www.gradsch.ohio-state.edu. Note that international applicants must
take and pass the TOEFL exam before they can be admitted to the Graduate
School. GRE exams are required from all applicants. The department also
requires a sample of academic writing.

current students, application procedures and deadlines, go to our web site,
