Pre-college Russian in the United States: terminated programs

[John Schillinger]

     The Committee on College and pre-College Russian (CCPCR) has
conducted an annual census of Russian programs in the US since 1984.
CCPCR has an updated website at <www.american.edu/research/CCPCR/>,
which this year lists the programs identified thus far in all 50 states
and the District of Columbia.

    The site also gives teacher e-mail addresses as hyperlinks, school
contact information, and enrollment figures at each level. The site also
identifies each state that has no known programs, and for the first
time, offers a state-by-state list of 110 schools (and more will surely
be added) whose pre-college Russian programs have been terminated since
1998.

    In light of recent action in Congress to promote foreign language
study in the face of security issues (security broadly understood to
include economic, agricultural, medical, political, military, and other
areas), our dwindling lack of supply, our diminishing ability to get
students into the Russian "pipeline" calls for genuine concern and
visibility.   If any SEELANGERS can add to this list of terminated
programs (or to the existing programs given at the CCPCR website), I
would greatly appreciate an e-mail about such programs sent to me at
ccpcr at american.edu.  Many thanks!  John Schillinger, American U.,
