AB History 1995.  I would've had REES as a second major but I didn't finish 3 years of Russian, only 2.  

I didn't have time - really focused on the region as a junior after taking a bunch of Soviet and East European history classes.  My history degree is the absolute minimum number of US and non-Western history, and the rest is Russian/East European and Soviet region.

I further developed my Russian by doing development work in the region from 1996-2000.  I don't speak it fluently, but I can read, write, speak it well enough to communicate/navigate/etc.
