Seeking to encourage understanding and appreciation of other peoples and cultures, the Spanish
Department makes available elementary and intermediate courses designed to give students skill
in communication in the foreign language. Advanced courses improve language ability as well as
offer an appreciation of literary masterpieces and cultural backgrounds.
Individualized practice in basic skills is considered essential. The equipment and materials for
audio-visual lingual learning experiences and practice are in the audio-visual center.
Graduates in Spanish find careers in teaching foreign languages, teaching English as a second
language, and in bilingual education; others find their language ability useful in social service
organizations, church work, missionary service, government service, business, and library
science.
The Spanish major leads to a bachelor of arts degree, and requires 24 credits above the elementary
or 101/102 level in addition to one semester abroad or two semesters in the GC Spanish House.
Courses have the prefix SPN.
