Elephant in the room

[Nicola Kuchta]

I cannot speak to enrollments or funding but our department's summer language 
study-abroad program recently encountered difficulty when getting student visas 
processed. What for the last 10 years has taken 10-15 days took two months and 
ended with their reception at the 11th hour.

Does anyone have any idea as to how this situation with the Russian spies may 
affect Russian language programs in the U.S. universities? Common sense suggests 
that we should see some increase in funding, but common sense doesn't always 
prevail in these matters, does it?
