SEELANGS Digest - 7 Aug 2010 to 8 Aug 2010 (#2010-264)

Alyssa:

While I don't believe our data on this subject is comprehensive, we are striving for that. Through our "Language Through Culture" program (formerly known as "Education Patrons"), sponsored by Russkiy Mir and private donations, we send thousands of copies of Russian Life magazine free to American college and high school Russian language programs. I believe we have over 200 high schools in our database now.

Colleges and high schools in our database:

[Sorry, we are unable to provide contact data on schools in our db, given that we have told our partner schools this information will not be distributed to third parties without their permission.]

If anyone reading this list runs a program that does not appear on our list, just follow the link at the bottom of that page to contact us by email, so we can get you set up.

We are gathering enrollment information on programs now, to allot distribution of free issues for the coming academic year. If you are a past participant of this program reading this, please be sure that your information is updated, and note that the "maximum of 6 issues" has been lifted. The sky is not the limit, but we can get closer to the goal of a copy of Russian Life in every student's hands.

Finally, as added incentive, as part of the Russkiy Mir Foundation support this year, we will be sending to all participant schools several free copies of our special "Chekhov @ 150" issue of Chtenia - a special bilingual presentation of works by and about Chekhov, great for use in classroom study, or for prizes for hard working students...
