Two teachers skilled in teaching English to foreign students have been employed. They are Som Datt Sharma, and Karen Young man. The student's day is divided into two parts. In the first part tne students will have the nor mul classroom setup covering grammar, vocabulary, read ing, writing and comprehen sion. In the second part, the students may audit a class and will have a chance to work with a professor on a one-to one basis. To orient the students to the American culture, there will be assignments such as watch ing two television programs a week and submitting a sum mary in their own language, reading three newspaper edi torials and writing a summ ary, and excursions, such as a tour to see the fall leaves. Once a week a colloquium will be offered when the stud ents will address faculty and interested citizens on subjects dealing with their home coun tries. Dr. Sud said attempts will be made to make the students comfortable with using Eng lish by helping-them overcome shyness, cultural shock, lack of English facility, and lack of understanding of American testing methods. Dr. Sud said that invitat ions to homes will be welcome for the students. Check the ads in the Charlotte Post each week WASHINGTON, D C -Senator Robert Mor gan (D-N.C.) (left) greets Fred D.
