It is absolutely inconceivable to me that my undergraduate university will no longer be offering Spanish, the language I learned to love there. The best professor I had the entire time I was at Drake was my Spanish professor, Dr. Kenton Stone. His classes inspired me and changed my life. As a result of my experiences as a Spanish student at Drake, I pursued a master's degree in Spanish literature and am now a PhD student in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching. I wouldn't be the same person today if I hadn't majored in Spanish at Drake.
Drake calls itself a liberal arts university.
I call it an embarrassment.
