Ciriaco M. Arroyo, the Emerson Hinchliff Professor of Hispanic Studies and Comparative Literature, will direct the program at the University of Hamburg. Arroyo pursued graduate studies at the University of Munich, West Ger- many, receiving his Ph.D. there in 1963. Arroyo will teach an interdisciplinary course in German thought in the 20th century to Cornell students enrolled in the University of Hamburg. He also will continue his re- search on the history of Spanish thought in the 20th century while living at the Cornell center next to the University of Hamburg campus. Having observed the German and American university systems "from the inside and outside," Arroyo said he is in a position to help Cornell students in Hamburg to under- stand and cope with the different teaching systems of the two universities, and to profit from the comparison. Anne Berger, an assistant professor of French, will be at the University of Paris during the fall term, and Jeannine Suzanne Routier Pucci, a lecturer in modern languages and linguistics, will direct the program during the spring term. Berger received a bachelor's degree with very high hon- ors from the Academie de Paris in 1975 and is currently in Paris completing her doctoral thesis in French literature at the university. Routier Pucci has done undergraduate and graduate work in Spanish at the University of Paris and field work in anthropology in Peru and "Mexico. She received a diploma Claude Level in advanced studies from the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Cornell Abroad's three new directors are, from left, Ciriaco Arroyo, who will direct the program in West Sciences Sociales in Paris in 1982.
