Masaaki Kamiya, associate professor of East Languages and Literatures, recently served on a panel to select 30 recipients for the Critical Language Scholarship (CLS) Program at the Council of American Overseas Research Centers (CAORC). The CLS Program is funded by the U.S. Department of State and provides fully funded intensive summer institutes for U.S. undergraduate and graduate students to participate in group language programs overseas.
This is the inaugural year for the Japanese program. Kamiya and two other language specialists along with two representatives from State Department and CAORC selected the final recipients (15 students each for intermediate and advanced levels) out of 75 second round applicants.
