Center for Language Education And Research (CLEAR) at Michigan State University - Other LRCs

Foreign Language Resource Centers

What are Language Resource Centers?

The United States Department of Education has awarded grants to a small number of institutions for the purpose of establishing, strengthening, and operating national foreign language resource and training centers to improve the teaching and learning of foreign languages. Presently there are fifteen Title VI Language Resource Centers nationwide.

A booklet describing the scope of the LRCs' current endeavors, including overviews of the individual LRCs, has recently been published.

(Free Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to view booklet.)
