Dear All,

With deep regret, and due to the current hostilities in Iraq and their
impact on the regions of the Middle East as a whole, I convey to you
the suspension of the University of Virginia-Yarmouk University Summer
Arabic Program for Summer 2003.   We do hope to resume the Program in
Summer 2004.   As you all know, this is a hard decision to make.
However, while Irbid is a safe place and our participants have never
encountered any hostilities in past summers, it is only judicious and
prudent to return to a normal setting when emotions are calmer and the
region more genial.

Mohammed Sawaie
Program Director
