Abstract
- The article presents information on the study programs initiated by German state universities to help students whose campuses were washed out by Hurricane Katrina. Several public universities there have made available a total of 30 places for the fall semester with all expenses paid. The 12 universities of the German state of Hesse have accepted 15 students. Ludwig Maximilian University, in Munich, is taking 5, and the University of Dortmund is taking 10. In general, the offers include airfare, all fees, accommodations, health insurance and about $20 per day spending money. Students who have been studying German will take at least some classes in that language. But the others will choose from the growing number of courses taught in English that German universities have been developing to attract more foreign students.
