RUTGERS GETS PROGRAM GRANT OF $10,000

(“The Daily Home News” — New Brunswick, N. J. — Sept. 26, 1963)

The American Hungarian Studies Foundation has granted Rutgers University $10,000 in support of the Hungarian teaching program at the university.

William J. Kukor, Foundation treasurer and executive vice president of the Magyar Savings & Loan Association in this city (New Brunswick, N. J.), presented the Foundation’s check to Dr. David D. Denker, assistant to Rutgers President Mason W. Gross, in special ceremonies here.

This is the fourth consecutive year the Foundation, a nationwide group composed primarily of representatives of American-Hungarian organizations, has granted money to Rutgers University for the Hungarian teaching program.

August J. Molnár, Foundation president and lecturer in Hungarian at the university, thanked the “thousands of friends who have aided the Foundation’s efforts.”

Molnár said Rutgers’ four-year-old Hungarian studies program could not have been established without the efforts of these persons. He said Rutgers conducts the only Foundation-supported program in the nation, and hopes similar programs will be launched at other universities.

“Studies supported by the U. S. Office of Education indicate that interest in Hungarian language, literature and culture has been on the upswing during the past three years”, Molnár said, “and there is definitely a need for an increase in Hungarian studies programs.”

Hungarian instruction at Rutgers includes an undergraduate course and three courses for adults. The adult courses are offered in the evening Extension Division.

In addition to the course work, Rutgers each year conducts a Hungarian Week, a Hungarian Studies Seminar and other programs.
