TIME TO APPLY FOR THE 2008 INTERNATIONAL CANADIAN STUDIES INSTITUTE

The 8th Annual International Canadian Studies Institute will visit British Columbia and the Yukon July 15-27 2008. WOU faculty who are interested in applying should contact Robin Smith (503 838-8357 or smithr@wou.edu) for an application, due 1 December 2007.

The purpose of the ICSI is to provide US academics with a broad, multi-disciplinary introduction to Canada and its provinces and territories and to assist their schools in developing or strengthening International Studies programs. The Institute will reveal the magnitude and importance of US-Canada relationships, explore the similarities and differences between the two countries, and provide relevant and timely information and materials for potential research projects and course development.

Here is an account by Mary Pettenger, Political Science, of her experience during the 2007 ICSI in Alberta.
