Give Cupid A Cliance At Tlie Valentine Dance
Extended Program
For 1955 Announced
By Cultural Seminar
The Scandinavian. Seminar for
Cultural Studies announces an ex
panded prograin for the 1955-56 ac
ademic year.
Since 1949, both graduates and
undergraduates have been offered
the opportunity of living and study
ing for a year in the Danish folk
schools or residential colleges. This
year, as an alternative to Denmark,
students may select Norway, Swe
den, or Finland as their country of
study. They may also carry out re
search in their particular field of.
interest during their stay at the
folk schools. Each student will be
assigned an advisor in Ms field,
'and the February field trip wiU be
used primarily for independent re
search or for visiting institutions
■wliich pertain to his study project
lin any or all of the Scandinavian
countries.
The study projects are an inte-
igral part of /the program and- in^
elude the following subjects:
Adult education, the cooperative
imovement, international relations,
arts and crafts, folk schools, edu
cation, physical education, labor
education, music, home economics,
aigriculture, folklore, literature, his
tory, social welfare and social leg
islation, politics, religion, and youth
organization.
The Seminar members will, as
previously, achieve an intimate
contact with the people by learning
a Scandinavian language while in
the country of their choice. They
will live with several families dur
ing the first few months and par
ticipate in a series of group semi
nars. These include intensive lan
guage study and courses on the
cultural background of Scandina
via. During the five months at a
ifolk school, students will follow
the same curriculum as that of
their Scandinavian classmates.
The folk schools were started in
1944 by G-rundtvig, Denmark’s in
ternationally recognized educator
and theologian and a contemporary
of Kierkegaard’is. They have prov
en to be ideal for the purpose of
the Seminar, for' they, perhaps
more than any other single insti
tution in Scandinavia, reflect the
life and culture of the people.
The cost of the entire nine month
(program, including board, room
and tuition, is $800 plus travel.
Two $400 scholarships are avail
able.
