\n\n<p>In 1962, the Inter-disciplinary Committee on Soviet and East European Studies is founded at Carleton. A BA (Honours) degree in Soviet and East European Studies is initiated. The Committee is variously chaired in the following decade by Professors Adam Bromke (Political Science), John Strong (History), and Philip Uren (Geography). During the 1960s it sponsors a series of evening public lectures by leading North American Slavists. Carleton experts give a series of lectures on CBC radio on Soviet topics which are broadcast across the country. Members of the Committee are also at the forefront of organizing a graduate student and faculty exchange with Leningrad State University (now Saint Petersburg State University). This is the first such exchange in Canada and later the only one to escape cancellation over the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan; the exchange still exists today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1971, the Institute of Soviet and East European Studies (ISEES) is created as a separate university unit. Professor Bohdan Bociurkiw (Political Science) is appointed to head the new institute and launch an MA program. The Institute is housed in Paterson Hall. Professor Philip Uren (Geography) is appointed ISEES director for a three-year term. The East-West Project (EWP) is founded as the Institute\u2019s first organized research unit.
