Subject:AAUSC info

I would like to share information about this organization with  
colleagues in the field. I encourage all Arabic language program  
supervisors and coordinators to join this organization.

American Association of University Supervisors and Coordinators

www.aausc.org

Since its inception in 1980, the AAUSC has worked:

to promote, improve, and strengthen foreign language and second  
language instruction in the US; to strengthen development programs for  
teaching assistants, teaching fellows, associate instructors, or their  
equivalents; to promote research in second language acquisition and on  
the preparation and supervision of teaching assistants; and to  
establish a forum for exchanging ideas, experiences, and materials  
among those concerned with language program direction.

Language Section Heads are elected for each language represented in  
the organization. (see below)

Language Section Heads

Language Section Heads are responsible for coordinating language  
sections and promoting membership in the Association. A term of office  
is two years. In addition, Language Section Heads prepare a column for  
the AAUSC Newsletter, which normally comes out in the Spring and Fall  
of each year. The column should deal with issues of importance to the  
AAUSC members in the particular language section. Ideally,  
information, articles, questions, e.g., are elicited from the  
membership, but short of that, the Language Section Head must write an  
article on issues that he/she judges to be important to members of  
that language. The Language Section Heads usually become the  
Nominating Committee to find candidates to run for the following  
election's Section Heads as well as Vice-President.
