NEWSLETTER WINTER 2006
Welcome to the web based ELST newsletter! On this page you'll find news about :-
ELST SCHOLAR 2006 ELST friends were sad to see Chokey Dolma (ELST Scholar 2006) leave Cambridge. Whilst a visting scholar at Girton College Chokey contributed a great deal to life at college and Cambridge. This included talking to fellows at Girton and Newnham, reading some of her poetry at poetry evenings, giving Tibetan lessons to fellow Girton students and much more. Chokey was a very dedicated and enthusiastic ELST scholar and we wish her every success as she returns to India.

ELST SCHOLAR 2007 Congratulations to Ms. Tsering Yangkey who has been selected as ELST scholar 2007. Ms. Yangkey works for the Department of Culture and Religion of the Tibetan Government in Exile and is no stranger to ELST having attended the ELST Workshop 2001.
