Abstract

The Center for Slavic and East European Studies co-sponsors two Russian language courses at Columbus International High School. This is part of its mission as a federal Department of Education National Resource Center (Title VI) to expand the knowledge of Eastern Europe and Eurasia in Ohio and the Midwest, and in particular for traditionally underrepresented groups. The high school focuses on teaching students languages and an international curriculum, giving them global competencies.
