St. Olaf College has had a slight drop this year (we're still very
pleased).

In 2010-2011 we had 43 in 1st semester Russian, 35 in second semester
Russian, 19 in 3rd semester Russian and 13 in 4th semester Russian (3
semesters are required to fulfill the language requirement).

This year we have 39 in 1st semester Russian and 32 in third semester
Russian.
