Last year the university announced teaching Greek was a goner, because of “consistently low” student enrolments (CMM November 23).
No longer, Lt U advises that Greek language learning is now a goer, “for at least the next three years” following a community commitment to provide funding and “assistance with increasing enrolments.”
The Victorian Government is also kicking in $40 000 for ten one-year scholarships as part of its celebration of the 200th anniversary of Greek independence this year.
As to Indonesian and Hindi, also announced for the chop last year, LT U says there fate will be decided “soon”.
