Moscow Summer School.

"In the summer of 1933 a group of young American went to Russia to organise an institution for summer study in the Soviet Union. The summer session has since become an integral part of the Moscow State University, and in 1934 the Anglo-American section had over 200 students, from Canada, England, the United States, Mexico Latin American, Scandinavia, and the Far East. This year provision is being made for 500 students from U.S.A. and Canada alone.

All instruction is given in English by a Soviet faculty of professors and specialist, and prominent Soviet leaders address the school from time to time. The State University of Moscow certifies academic credit to foreign students meeting the requirements of the university and completing a course of study in the Anglo-American section. Courses offered for 1935 include; Arts in the U.S.S.R, literature of Russia and the Soviet Union, and philosophy of dialectical materialism. Students are allowed to enrol in three of the possible dozen courses, which constitute 90 classroom hours in a period of six weeks.

Outside the classroom the living conditions of the student at the summer sessions are designed to proximate those of the typical Soviet student. With this in view, the dormitory type of accommodation is provided. Russian students are extremely friendly and eager to fraternise; acquaintances spring up readily.
