Hello Professor Menn,

I am a student of languages and peace and conflict studies at the
university of waterloo in ontario, canada.  I would like my university
to recognize my specific field of study as a major discipline.  Do you
know of any other universities that offer such a programme (canadian
spelling!)?

Should you have the time to reply....

sincerely and thankfully yours,

andrew crowne
