Rinner funded by German Embassy

Repost from Campus Weekly

Dr. Susanne Rinner (Languages, Literatures, and Cultures) received new funding from the German Embassy for “German Weeks 2013: Germany in Europe.” Last year, the UNCG German Program partnered, for the first time, with German Weeks and the participation led to several recognitions on campus and beyond. For example, one of our students, Nicole Schachter participated in the nation-wide competitions held in Washington DC and has received a DAAD Undergraduate Scholarship for study abroad in the spring of 2013. Participating in German Weeks 2013/14 will allow the program to complement its curricular offerings with a lecture series, a film series, and the appropriate public outreach via traditional and social media.
