Dear Mr. Brod,

        Thank you for agreeing to share the following news release with the
appropriate sources within the Modern Language Association.
        Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

************************************************************************

        Michigan State University and the Coca-Cola Foundation are proud to
announce the launching of the 1997 Coca-Cola Global Fellows (CCGF) Program.
This jointly-sponsored initiative provides a limited number of grants of up
to $2,000 for short term and up to $5,000 for semester-long study in one of
20 MSU study abroad programs in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the
Middle East.  These new scholarships will allow both secondary school
foreign language teachers and U.S. university students to acquire
international perspectives, to promote cross-cultural understanding, and to
expand their intercultural and language skills.
        To be considered for a Coca-Cola Global Fellowship applicants must
be U.S. citizens or have permanent resident status. In addition, secondary
school foreign language teachers must: (1) be currently employed full-time
in an accredited U.S. secondary school; (2) have successfully completed
foreign-language course work commensurate with their state's
language-teaching certification requirements; (3) provide a reference letter
from their school district superintendent that addresses: (a) the usefulness
for the applicant of the particular study abroad program to which he/she is
applying and (b) the potential for the applicant to benefit professionally
and personally from the award; and (4) apply for admission to an MSU study
abroad program that offers appropriate course work in the language already
studied. (This last requirement includes a $75 MSU Study Abroad application
fee, which is refundable to those not selected for an award.)
        MSU programs that meet CCGF program requirements are located in
Hinschu, Taiwan; Tours, France; Aachen, Freiburg, Kaiserslautern, and Mayen,
Germany; Tell Beithsaida-Julias, Beer-Sheva, Jerusalem, and Tel Aviv,
Israel; Florence and Rome, Italy; Hikone, Japan; Seoul, South Korea; Harare,
Zimbabwe; Merida, Mexico; and Caceres, Alcala de Henares, and Valencia,
Spain. Program offerings range from two- to 15-week summer sessions to
semester or even academic year settings. Applicants must meet the acceptance
criteria of the respective programs to which they apply.
        Coca-Cola Global Fellows will be selected on the basis of their
academic record, statement of purpose, language interest and aptitude,
letters of reference, and personal qualifications.
        For more information or to request a CCGF brochure, individual study
program materials, or an application, contact: Coca-Cola Global Fellows
Program, Office of Study Abroad, 109 International Center, Michigan State
University, East Lansing, MI 48824-1035; phone, 517-353-8920; fax,
517-432-2082; or e-mail, overseas at pilot.msu.edu.
        Completed applications must be submitted by March 14, 1997.
