Dear Susanne,

we are starting construction for our new language center this January. We
are not building a new teleconferencing room (the two existing ones on
campus are underused), but we do not do a lot of distance learning.

We do use programs such as skype frequently, however.

We could talk on the phone (or rather via skype?) if you wish to get some
more info on our language center plans.

Best, Felix
