The ability to communicate with someone in their own language is a major plus for those going out into a world which is becoming increasingly small due to communications and travel innovations. The Foreign Language Department features 20 distinct courses in Spanish and 16 in French. We are a small department, which allows us to give you a great deal of personal attention.
Major courses average five students, and there are numerous opportunities for independent study.
Our backgrounds include a range of positions from teaching English in China, to publishing a work of Spanish literature, to work with the United States Foreign Service. Language study requires much work, dedication, and a willingness to practice your skills independently. There is considerable support available to those who need extra work.
