Flagship Students The links on this page will introduce you to our current Russian Flagship students. As you look through them, you’ll notice that there is no single profile for Flagship students. They all have different interests, majors, hobbies, and goals in studying Russian. The one thing that they all share, however, is a passion for Russian and its culture.
