          LESS COMMONLY TAUGHT LANGUAGE GOPHER
================================================================

A new gopher has been established that you or your colleagues 
might be interested in. Its aim is to present informatin on where 
where all Less  Commonly Taught Languages (all except English, 
French, German, and Spanish) are taught at North American 2 and 4 
year colleges, and universities. Included is information on 
contact people at each  institution (addresses, phone and fax 
numbers).

At present we have about 250 languages (from Afrikaans to Zulu, 
with entries for Cherokee, Evenki, Lao, Early Welsh, Middle 
Turkic, Japanese, and Old Norse, to name a few).

We ask your cooperation in finding and bringing to our attention 
mistakes and gaps in our coverage.  We continually update the 
information in the gopher.

In the future, we will expand to include community education, and 
list details of LCTL offerings at the secondary and elementary 
levels. Please send information if know of any resources we do not 
list.

The Less Commonly Taught Languages Project is part of the Center 
for Advanced Research on Language Acquisition at the University of 
Minnesota. We are a National Language Resource Center, funded 
through the Center for International Education, U.S. Department of 
Education.
