Helping America’s Global Outreach

Strategic Language Initiative is designed to teach Persian, or Farsi, Arabic, Korean and Chinese

March 1, 2007

 

As part of the California State University’s Strategic Language Initiative, Cal State Fullerton will offer an intensive, six-week Persian language program this summer. In the planning stages for more than a year, the initiative is designed to teach Persian, or Farsi, Arabic, Korean and Chinese so Americans can work more effectively with citizens of countries where those languages are spoken. CSUF will take the lead in teaching Persian while other CSU campuses will focus on the other languages. The institute will be offered at no charge to CSUF students as well as others, including seniors in high school (under federal funding) and will run from June 25 through Aug. 3.
