Bowling Green State University and University of Toledo students will soon be able to take foreign language courses with either public institution.

BGSU President Mary Ellen Mazey and UT President Sharon Gaber will sign an agreement Wednesday supporting foreign language course exchange. The signing is set for 6:30 p.m. ahead of an 8 p.m. kickoff for the rivalry football game between the two.

The Governor’s Task Force on Affordability and Efficiency recommended that universities in the same region offering duplicative programs look for opportunities to collaborate. Officials said this agreement aims to grow opportunities for students at both universities while saving resources by reducing programs that overlap.
