Dear Advisor,
Global Initiatives, Modern Languages and the Honors College have partnered to host an
NEH-funded, immersive summer day-school to help your students improve their Spanish,
Japanese and Korean. The San Antonio Language Academy (SALA) offers instruction in three
languages beginning in Mid-may. We repeat a Spanish-only session in June.
What makes SALA unique? Besides improving a language in 90 hours of instruction over 3
weeks, our program participants will:
* learn music, art, and dance by San Antonian and world-renowned artists,
* rediscover our multicultural city through a global lens,
* cook and taste international food without leaving home!
We will offer your students the special early bird rate of $350 per three-week term to
join the SALA Spanish, Korean, or Japanese immersion program.
Also, we are offering a special rate of $500 for UTSA alumni, staff, and faculty. Since
you are a great collaborator and always at the forefront of international education, I
would extend this offer to any of your colleagues or family interested in this program.
Send your questions to Sala@utsa.edu<mailto:Sala@utsa.edu>
Thanks for promoting this opportunity. You rock!!
