Ryan Schroth, the French professor at Eastern, listens to a story told by Spanish professor Carlos Amaya. Both were speaking to new students Tuesday afternoon, at a orientation fair in the University ballroom at the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union. “People are definitely interested in the program, I spoke to a handful of new students. A lot of students are showing an interest in studying abroad. I have definitely seen an increase in French, but it’s still to early to tell if there is an increase in interest in the other languages. This fair is such a great environment and a great way for the students coming in to see that there are many ways that they can have fun here.” Schroth said.
