HUNGARIAN STUDIES ANNUAL SUMMER PROGRAM Language • History • Culture June 15 - July 24, 1987 GENERAL INFORMATION From June 15 to July 24, 1987, an intensive six-week program in Hungarian Studies will be held on the campus of Ohio Northern University in Ada, Ohio. It is the only concentrated summer Hungarian Studies program in the United States. It is Portland State University's special off-campus program which provides an exciting language learning opportunity as well as courses in the history, culture and society of Hungary and its East European neighbors. The program also includes an optional 7th week (July 26 to Aug. 1) of field research in the Hungarian-American "Birmingham" neighborhood of Toledo, Ohio. Whether you are a graduate student interested in language proficiency, a college student interested in a different way to expand your studies, or a person who would like to know more about an important part of the world, you can spend six to seven weeks experiencing the literature, history, folklore, politics and culture of Hungary. You will have ample opportunity to practice what you learn in the classroom. Oncampus activities will include special lectures by invited speakers and a weekly Hungarian movie. Social life and entertainment for the program participants include group tours to nearby points of interest, including excursions to Middle Bass Island on Lake Erie and to the Hungarian-American community in Toledo.
