On Dec. 29, this paper published a second ill-considered piece by the writer of an ill-informed piece published on Dec. 16. This time the writer complains that we do not teach modern Hebrew at the University of Arkansas Middle East Studies Program. We also do not teach Turkish, although Turkey is a major Middle Eastern country. Each MEST program develops concentrations; few cover all the region s languages.
Recently, a piece in this newspaper maligned faculty members of the Middle East Studies (MEST) Program at the University of Arkansas. As our UA colleague, its author might have reached out to us, but instead quoted an unreliable news outfit. What concerns me most is that he misleads our students about our course offerings.
