Dear Ms. De Ruyck,

I have just received a copy of your e-mail request for information about our history syllabus here at St. Hilda's College, Buenos Aires.
I am afraid that we teach neither Flanders nor the lives of its famous sons and daughters in a historical context, although I suspect the place may be mentioned in geography and poetry lessons.
I am at loss to understand how, but I hope that this somewhat negative response will indeed help you in your research.

Saludos desde Argentina.

Yours sincerely,
G. Crebbin
History Master.

Yours sincerely,
Margarita Salinas, head of the history department.
