Communication Through Actions and Words Comprehensive training in the languages of Spanish, German and French is the aim of the Language Department. The basic skills learned by discipline and constant drilling in levels I and II are reinforcc(J by literature and conversational studies in levels III and IV. A new concept in linguistic study, Vocational Spanish, offers a concentrated course of study dedicated exclusively to business and commer- cial interests. Bilingualism is becoming a neces- sary qualification in business and social work because of an increasing ethnic population. Stu- dents planning to enter these fields receive instruction in Spanish so that communication will not remain a barrier to social service. The language department familiarizes stu- dents with Spanish, German and French cul- tures through its annual Christmas Festival. Here, the cuisine and customs of these three cultures combine to form an international atmosphere. While students of the Foreign Languages develop an ability to express themselves ver- bally the students of the theatre explore the lan- guage of actions.
