Heinsius, student Algemene Economie, heeft mij te kennen gegeven van 10 januari 1994 tot en met 3 juni 1994 de Verenigde Staten te gaan studeren. Gedurende én semester gaat genoemde student het vak "International Business and Trade” volgen aan de American Universiteit in Washington DC. Gegeven de globale informatie van de student over de inhoud en het niveau van deze cursus, acht ik het niet onwaarschijnlijk dat de student hiermee na terugkeer (minimal) 10 studiepunten kan verkrijgen, mits het desbetreffende tentamen met een voldoende is afgesloten Hoogachtend, x] /, Prof-drimr.
