oa'ern Language Facilities Enable Students To Fuhill Their Hopes of Communication Languages help students to understand their neighbors t l Brother Grimaldi demonstrates the use of the movie projector to Charlie Walhy, so that the French class can enjoy another film on French culture. The efforts of last year's seniors have helped develop time-tested courses of ex- cellent quality in French, Latin and Span! ish. These courses not only seek to ex- pose students to the intricacies of a foreign language, but also to acquaint them with the people and customs of a foreign country. To realize the first goal, the staff com- mands a modern language laboratory and the latest texts and techniques. In achiev- ing the second, the faculty has succeeded in establishing several extra-curricular ac- tivities to supplement the knowledge gained through classwork. The responsibility of improving our now excellent language department is now passed into the hands of our present and future linguists. Receiving aid from Br.
