Each of these ten subjects will be treated by one or more of the Professors in Residence for a minimum of 4 hours (total class instruction: 45 hours). A reading list will be provided on the initial registration so as to permit background study prior to the summer session. All participants attending at least 90% (40 hrs.) of scheduled class sessions receive a Certificate of Completion from the Academy. Those registrants who wish to obtain U.S. academic credit (3 sem./4.5 quarter hrs.) will sit for a written examination on the final day of the program. On attending a second Academy program in Strasbourg (not necessarily in consecutive years), one may sit for an oral examination which, if successfully completed, leads to designation as a Fellow of the Academy (F.C.A.). Also, on attending a second Academy session in Strasbourg, one may defend a thesis on an approved apologetics topic, thereby obtaining the Academy's Diploma in Christian Apologetics (D.C.A.) or Human Rights (D.H.R.). Recipients of the Diploma with appropriate qualifications may proceed to a Doctorate (Ph.D. or Th.D.) from Trinity College and Theological Seminary, Newburgh, Indiana. SPONSORS: Canadian Institute for Law, Theology and Public Policy,
Edmonton, Canada THE COSTS: Only $2,995, exclusive of transportation to/from Strasbourg. This amount covers registration, all tuition and instructional fees, lodging throughout the session, and meals. A full day's bus excursion to the Vosges mountains and the medieval villages of the Alsace on Bastille Day (July 14) is also included. This amazingly low price is possible because of the French government subsidizes bonafide foreign students as well as students who are French nationals. Through the generosity of W.
