She says: "I am continuing my research on Tanzania, which was one of my cases in my AGS thesis, and the connections between national identity, colonial politics, and socio-linguistic issues related to the use of Swahili in the German colonial administration. I was so encouraged by Drs. McGiffen, Harwich and Kobtzeff at my thesis defense that it helped influence my decision to keep researching this multifaceted topic." |
Kyra Levine has entered a doctoral program at the Université de la Sorbonne in Paris. Her area is socio-linguistics and German colonial history in Africa.

Moving to Paris has taken a top rank amongst the most challenging things I have experienced in life so far. AGS – the classes, my colleagues, and the school staff – provided for me a sanity that I had lost! This program is phenomenal and is giving me opportunities to do some really cool things, such as being invited to intern for a summer at a school/community outreach program in Tanzania.
