[MLE] Multilingual university department in south Serbia
Dear MLE friends,
Most people think only of primary education when it comes to MLE. However here is a news-item from Serbia where they are implementing an MLE strategy at university level: http://www.osce.org/hcnm/84518

Some quotes:
A number of courses will be delivered in both Serbian and Albanian, with the proportion of Serbian-language courses gradually increasing during the four-year programme. This will give students from ethnic Albanian backgrounds the opportunity to both access higher education in their mother tongue, while also improving their proficiency in the State language, and is the first such initiative in Bujanovac.Maybe something to try in India?
"This model is an example of how multilingual education can solve the dilemma of 'either mother-tongue or State-language education'. The educators' and authorities' joint effort here demonstrates that,"

Karsten
