Foreign Language Department Language has become in our complex world a necessary vehicle of understanding. Mutual comprehension between the peoples of the earth must be the goal of modern man, not merely for self-preservation, but for self-improvement. Under the able coordination of August Caprio, we at Jonathan Dayton can explore German, French, Spanish, and Latin, lan- guages which have contributed greatly to the development of Western Man. Experience in grammar, conversation, cultural significance, and the language laboratory round out the curriculum of the foreign language department.

Fine Arts Department Ultimately, all forms of creation seek to express a truth. The mode of communication of the idea may differ; and with the fine arts of music, art, and drama we see the artist ' s attempt to appeal to man ' s aesthetic sense. At first the music we hear, the art we see, and the drama we ob- serve touch our immediate senses, but the fine arts department at our school works toward developing our perception so that we might be capable of understanding the. work on a more sensi- tive, abstract level.
