  • Five College Arabic Language Initiative
    The Five College Arabic Language Initiative now includes four Five College lecturers in Arabic. Through this arrangement, students may pursue four years of study of Standard Arabic. Each lecturer is hosted by one of the Five Colleges, and teaches both at the host institution and at another one of the Five Colleges. Such a rotation benefits students by making available different localized versions of Arabic (e.g., Levantine, Moroccan, Lebanese, etc., as spoken by one or another of the lecturers).
