Join the Language Immersion Institute for summer foreign language instruction on the campus of SUNY New Paltz. This historic village in the Mid-Hudson valley was settled by the French Huguenots in the 1600's and boasts unusual stone houses, picturesque mountains and clear glacial lakes. New Paltz is home to miles of hiking and mountain-biking trails, and world-class rock climbing. Nestled in the shadow of the Shawangunk ridge, New Paltz's unique downtown area has comfortable cafés and eclectic shops. A serene mountain setting combined with an artistic community creates a wonderful retreat for foreign language instruction.
