Virginia, USA (CD): The Fulbright Program, part of the National Security Language Initiative (NSLI), has established the Critical Language Enhancement Award, which will aim at increasing the number of U.S. students studying languages deemed as "critical." The NSLI was enacted at the beginning of 2006 and "was designed to increase the number of Americans learning critical foreign languages, such as Arabic, Chinese ... and others through new and expanded programs from kindergarten through the university level and into the work force," said Nicole Deaner, spokesperson for the United States Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.
