I choose to study Russian because I hated Spanish and because my high school Russian teacher came into my history class to promote Russian and I became interested.

North, Alexandra '13northa@dickinson.edu
I decided to take Russian because of my love for Vladmir Nabokov's literature. I read Ada; or Ardor, which had many references and passages in the Russian language and thought that it'd be really rewarding for me as a reader to be able to understand Nabokov's native language.

Moriarty, Caitlin'13moriartc@dickinson.edu
I decided to take Russian because I wanted to study critical need language according to the U.S. State Department that will help me when applying to jobs in the public sector. The reason I picked Russian over the other languages of this type that Dickinson offers is because I find Russian culture fascinating and knew that I wanted to learn more about that as well.

Vernon, Andrei ‘12vernona@dickinson.edu
Although my family has Russian roots, my grandmother is the only person in our family who speaks Russian. I would really enjoy speaking to my grandmother in Russian and as a result I thought taking Russian at Dickinson would provide me with that opportunity.

I took Spanish and Russian in high school and wanted to continue both in college. I enjoy learning the Russian language and culture because it is something very unique. I hope to be able to use both languages in the field of international affairs.

I wanted to try a new language in college, having taken German in high school, and Russian piqued my interest. I am interested in learning more about Russian history and literature particularly, along with the language.

I’ve always found Russian history and culture fascinating, and I love Russian literature, especially Anna Karenina and Crime and Punishment. Many of my friends are Russian as well, which further encouraged me to pursue studies in Russian language, literature, and culture.

Ever since I was young, I have been fascinated by Russian culture, history, and literature. I’ve wanted to learn Russian for a long time, although I’m interested by most languages. Besides, the Latin alphabet gets old.

I chose to take Russian because of my parents, who are from Poland and speak it fluently, but learned Russian when they were growing up. I learned to speak Polish fluently too, along with some Russian sayings. Since I already have one Slavic language under my belt, I figured I can learn one more too.
