Closure of German at USC

[Loren A. Billings]

I was not able to access <chronicle.com> because it requires a fee. But see what 
the following site says about Russian too, quoting Howard Gillman, dean of the 
College of Letters, Arts and Sciences:

<http://www.insidehighered.com/news/2008/04/11/german>

"There was a time when because of world events, the study of German and 
Russian and a few other languages and cultures struck us as really central. We 
now have a much broader perspective in the world."

Read on. This site is freely accessible. --Loren
