20 Languages add to students’ knowledge of world affairs Communication is an essential part of life and a wider knowledge of languages was offered to John Marshall students. Not only grammar and literature were included in these courses, but also a study of history, culture and customs was taught to enrich the student's understanding of life in other parts of the world. Teachers showed slides and films to complement foreign studies. To improve pronunciation and oral compre- hension, classes were taken into the language labs where they listened to tapes and records. Special students taking a language since ele- mentary school were placed in advanced classes. JAMES C. HARWOOD, B.A., University of Rich- mond, Key Club. Sponsor, Head of Language Department.
