Dear Colleague,

A few weeks ago, we encouraged you to participate in a study funded by the U.S. Department of Education entitled, “Careers of Language Study Abroad Alumni: A Comprehensive Investigation.” Your participation in that survey will help researchers at Penn State University explore:

• how the experience of learning language and culture at the undergraduate level influences students’ career options and choices;
• the extent to which proficiency in additional languages is valued on the job market;
• and the continued value and use of foreign language proficiency achieved through study abroad.

If you haven’t already done so, we invite you to participate in the survey now: http://bit.ly/2G4ipbJ

You can learn more about the research project by visiting this website. Any questions or concerns regarding the survey can be directed to the principal investigator, Celeste Kinginger, at cxk37@psu.edu.
