[Econmaj] interesting research possibility in Political Xcience and foreign language classes

[Joyce Raveling]

Hi All,
It's hard to believe that fall quarter will start just over a month from 
now!  Here's a couple announcements related to fall. 

The first is a very interesting opportunity for those of you minoring or 
double-majoring in Political Science.  It's a particularly exciting 
possibility if you're thinking about grad school, especially in 
political science.

The second might be helpful if you need to do your foreign language 
requirement and are interested in Czech or Bulgarian.

You know the drill.  If these aren't of interest, hit that delete key!

Best, Joyce
