Of course, different emphases are placed on the various departments. ln College Course English, writing techniques and literature are stressed to prepare students to take college entrance examinations and to do good college work. Commercial English emphasizes business terms to facilitate the entrance of Stll- dents into the business world. Regardless of the course a student is taking, a clear and usuable knowledge ol' English grammar and diction is es- sential. O, what concentration! E X x

Hasta la vista! Arma virumque cano- In the belief that the future of a strong nation does not lie entirely in the realm of science, Deering has, through the years, developed and maintained an out- standing language program. French, Spanish and Latin are offered to round Ollt the students' language back- ground. Though only two units of a foreign language are required lor college entrance, many students perfer to continue their studies. Because a student at Deering may study only Latin in the lreslnnan year, the lan- guage prograin is of a three-year duration. In the field . 'A sl -Qi of further study, French courses are particularly active. LANGUAGE DEPT: Head - Mrs. Mac --7 Dermaid, MA. Middlebury, Lang Lab. at XVellesley3 Miss Aaskov, l5.A. Augsbury nga College, Grad.
