46 Academic Information Overseas Study Program in Germany Cedarville College sponsors a program in Germany in which students study the language and culture for seven weeks. Students with no background in the language may fulfill their foreign lan– guage requirement in Elementary German (15 quarter hours). Students who already have had some German may take up to 14 hours in advanced German. While the study program is very intensive, it is also designed to take students into German homes and churches and to allow them to visit many historical settings along the Rhine, in Rhineland-Westfalen, in the Black Forest, and in Bavaria. Detailed information is available from the Depaii– ment of Language and Literature. Overseas Study Programs in Israel Cedarville College cooperates with two institutes in Israel to provide an experience of study and travel. Through the Institute of Holy Land Studies, located in Jerusalem, a student can choose two programs: long-term, consisting of a quarter or a year abroad; and short-term, a 24-day program during June in which a student can earn six quarter hours, which count as two general education electives (Bible and history). Through the Baptists for Israel Insti– tute, located in Galilee, a student can choose a work-study pro– gram for a summer, a quarter, or a year on an Israeli kibbutz. Information may be obtained from the chairman of the Depart– ment of Biblical Education.
