Laura Connolly concentrates on understanding a French tape. N X . Language studies emphasize culture The modern language courses - French, Spanish, German, and Russian - stressed mastery of speaking and an intimate knowledge of foreign cultures. On field trips during the year, several Spanish classes visited an exhibit of the works of Juan Chamizo, a famous Mexi- can painter, while German classes saw the Old World Market at the International Institute. The French Humanities program, an intensive investigation of the French people and civiliza- tion, was opened to third-year as well as fourth- year students. Latin scholars followed a more traditional pattern of study. The first two years laid the foundations of grammar and vocabulary, while advanced students went on to a penetrating analysis of Cicero and the prose-writers. 47
