This Fall semester, CELOP is celebrating its 40th anniversary! To commemorate the occasion, the CELOP Sun dedicates its November 2015 issue to 40 successful years of CELOP. Take a look back through the slideshow, and the history and timeline; listen to students and teachers reflect on their time at CELOP in the videos; and read the story of Carol Pineiro’s ski trip with her class from about 30 years ago!
While CELOP marks this milestone in its long history, it continues doing what it does best: it fosters a community of English language learning. Likewise, the CELOP Sun is a creative outlet for this community, so don’t forget to read our other articles. We announce the winners of the fall foliage contest, and have articles covering CELOP activities such as apple picking and the recent Japanese festival: Matsuri.
