The Kansas African Studies Center and the Department of African and African-American Studies at The University of Kansas are the sponsors of the third annual Summer African Language Institute (SALI) on the Lawrence campus from June 7 - July 29, 2016. The institute will offer expert instruction in beginning and intermediate Arabic, beginning and intermediate Kiswahili, beginning Somali, and beginning Wolof.
In eight weeks, students will experience the equivalent of one year of university-level language instruction, enhance their global awareness through experiential learning, and empower themselves to build futures as socially responsible citizens. The environment of the institute will foster a close community of African language learners over the course of both the June and July summer sessions. All language courses will be supplemented with a variety of activities including guest lectures, field trips, films, language tables, and cultural immersion. We invite all who are interested to join us for a rigorous yet fun summer of learning without boundaries!
