The Summer Slavic Language Program does not currently plan to offer any courses in Polish in Summer 2012. We would very much like to renew this program in Summer 2013, but renewal will depend on sufficient student interest. If you would be interested in taking Elementary or Intermediate Polish in Summer 2013, please contact Steven Clancy <sclancy@uchicago.edu> for more information.
