with the conditions of the federal grant.
The US National Resource Center program was founded in 1965 to offer federal funding for language and culture programming for students entering careers in diplomacy and national security. The National Resource Center awarded $22 million in grant funding to language courses at 40 universities last year; the Duke-UNC Consortium for Middle East Studies received $235,000 from federal grant funds last year.....
In a letter dated August 29 and sent to the program’s directors, the Department says course topics including Iranian art and film offer “little to no relevance” under the funding guidelines, nor do they “support the development of foreign language and international expertise for the benefit of US national security and economic stability”. Instead, the course places “considerable emphasis on advancing ideological priorities.”
