The Department of Fereign anguages and Literature The Soochow University program in Foreign Languages andliiterature has two objectives. It seeks first to develop skill in accurately and effectively communicating facts and id- eas both orally and in writing in the English language. Secondly it seeks to provide some understanding and appreciation of Western literature, which is essential to a modern language student. T T I The University requires every student, irrespective of department, six hours of English reading and grammar and five hours of oral and auditory training, distributed throughout his freshman and sophomore. years. 'ln addition, freqiient written exercises with criticisms-froxn his instructors in scheduled conferences gives him an opportunity to improve his writing ability. This elinpnasis on the study of English for all students is in accordance with the University's long established principle that a graduate from Soochow must be well versed in the use of the English language. ln addition to the above basic training which is common to all students, every candidate for a Bachelor's degree in this department must have completed 15D credits, some of which are in the field of languages other than English, and some are related to Western literature. After four years of schooling, a graduate from this department should have laid good foundation for a vocation, be it in teaching, translating, secretarial Work or self4cultivation through the study of literature. ln our Work, we are most thankful to our visiting European and American scholars, whose teaching and inspiration are instrumental in the success of this department. nv, 1' my :T T -'ww' V , Y U ' nr H ' i a 5 to W iii my i i'i'!!E3'1:2'1 Q.
