Want to learn a language not taught at Yale?  Here's your chance!
Applications for Directed Independent Language Study (DILS) are currently 
being accepted for language study in the 2006 spring semester. The deadline 
for applications is Monday, November 28.  For additional information about 
DILS and for Application forms, interested students should consult the DILS 
web site at www.cls.yale.edu/dils or send inquiries to dils at yale.edu .

DILS responds to requests by individuals or small groups to learn a 
language for a valid academic reason, providing alternative ways for Yale 
students to study languages that are not currently offered through 
traditional classroom instruction at Yale. Only those applications will be 
approved for which adequate materials, Language Partners, and testing can 
be arranged.
