REMINDER-FREIBURG EXCHANGES. As most faculty know, in addition to the traditional one-semester or one-year
faculty exchange between Stetson and Paedagogische Hochschule in Freiburg, there are one-month exchanges.
The Stetson faculty member goes to Freiburg for the month of June, and the Paedagogische Hochschule faculty
member comes here in March or September. Stetson pays for the round trip transportation (Orlando-Freiburg) and
an apartment in Freiburg is provided at the Paedagogische Hochschule. The faculty member takes care of all
additional expenses. Anyone interested should contact the Office of International Exchange for further information
and an application. Application Deadline: November 1, 1996.
STUDY ABROAD PROGRAMS. Faculty, please advise your students that the deadline for Study Abroad Programs
participation for the Spring Semester of the Academic Year 1996-97 is October 1, 1996. The Office of
International Exchange and Off-Campus Programs is located in the International House, 207 1/2 East Michigan
Avenue.
OFF-CAMPUS TRIPS. Faculty, if you are planning an Off-Campus trip, please notify the Office of International
Exchange as soon as possible. A copy of university guidelines will be sent to you. A proposal of the trip must
be sent by the end of the first month of the semester preceding the trip to the University Committee on
International and Off-Campus Programs for approval and verification concerning technical details. This should show
budget, itinerary (air and ground transportation, cities and places), and any other relevant information. Please mail

university committee that oversees and approves off-campus trips.
