language Department E ,.. ,.-l-u-itlilillv K . Comprehending English through the study of Latin Through the study of foreign languages, students aim to increase their knowledge ofthe world and its peoples. In studying Latin a student gains an understanding of various customs and ways of life, as well as a greater knowledge of ancient history and the culture of the early Romans. Second year students read Julius Caesar's Gal- lic Campaigns, which is translated directly and studied for style and content, The display of projects completed by the students, which help to increase their knowledge in some particular phase of their Latin studies, provides an opportunity for others to see something of Roman culture and its influences upon the development of civili- zation. ln Spanish courses emphasis is placed upon oral language and conversation, Students learn ofthe social and cultural customs of the Latin American countries and Spain. A knowledge ofthe language ofthe South Amer- ican countries is essential in promoting a greater under- standing of our southern neighbors, Through the study of Spanish, students become interested in these countries and are often induced to travel there. Foreign language students increase their knowledge of English both in vo- cabulary and in structure. b ii' M.
