Russian 1125-101 (non-native speakers): Syllabus

THESE ARE LAST year's meeting days! The meeting days/times for this semester will be set at the organizational meeting, see time and place on the Welcome page.

This is a TBA course. TBA means "time to be arranged" (to accommodate as many students as we can). We hold an organizational meeting for all TBA courses at the beginning of each semester. The time and place of the meeting are posted at our home page, russian.cornell.edu, a couple of weeks before each semester starts. Click Welcome in the navigation bar to read it.

The assignments for the semester are not prepared ahead of time because we want to read about current events (for the most part). Most assignments are posted a few of days before the class.
