A unique opportunity to learn the Arabic language is being offered this fall by the U of L's International Centre for Students.

Spoken Arabic, a free, non-credit course, is open to all students, staff and faculty and will be offered on Wednesday evenings from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. beginning Sept. 22 and running through Nov. 17.

The course is designed for individuals who have little or no knowledge of Modern Standard Arabic and who are eager to learn Arabic. A graduate student volunteer who has experience teaching the subject will administer the course.

There are a limited number of seats available.

Those interested in registering for this course can do so by visiting the International Centre for Students located in the Students' Union Building, Room SU040, or by contacting Jacqueline St. Aubin at 403-329-2053.
