building in the Less Commonly Taught Languages (LCTLs). All awardees
have provided a significant personal and/or institutional contribution
to the success of the proposed project. The grant recipients are
required to submit a final report describing how the grant was used, the
results of the project, and a copy of any product stemming from the
project.
