Activ1t1es Enhance Languages Mastering a language whether it be French, Spanish, or Latin entails a great amount of time and energy. And yet, it needn't be all work and no play. Whoever said education couldn't be enioyable any- way? lndeed it can, and the Language Dept. is doing their best to comply. A variety of activities are offered to the language students throughout the year. These enable the students to put their language into actual use, learn of the culture of the country, and have some fun at the same time. They include trips to Spain and Quebec, authentic dinners, Christmas carolling through the halls, and many more. So although a lot of input goes into learn- ing a language, many agree that the benefits and end result make it all worth while.
