Language study

From Alhannah

Qatar Center for the Presentation of Islam (QCPI, 486-4966) offers beginning spoken Arabic and written Arabic courses free of charge. They start in late September and run until mid December. Then begin again in February, and in April. They fill up quickly and you have to go to the center to register.

Your institution may independently offer classes. Check with your Human Resources department.

The Foreign Language Institute runs evening classes, and Virginia Commonwealth University occasionally runs 3 week evening courses (500QR, ~$140). Contact Mona Mohammed, 492-7238,
