The study of languages is receiving increased emphasis in today's world of international communication, jet-age travel, and need for understanding our "neighbors" throughout the world. The Foreign language Department offers courses designed to meet both college entrance requirements and the interests and needs of all students. In the sequential courses spoken communication is given major emphasis. Reading and writing are emphasized at the intermediate and advanced levels. Since language must not be separated from the culture and customs of the people who use it, all language courses will cover the history, civilization and customs of the people who speak it.
