A foreign language student makes use of the language lab. Foreign languages Emphasize culture “The fluent use of foreign language, under- standing of the country's literature and other as- pects of the culture was the goal of the Foreign Language Department, as described by Miss Dor- othy Reynolds, department head. A highlight of the year in the department was the trips to Europe over the Easter vacation. Sev- eral students and teachers gained valuable and better understandings of the culture of different countries, their people, and their language. For the first year, Spanish IV and V were taught as one unit by Miss Dorothy Reynolds. Also new to Southeast was German III which was taught by Mr. Marlin Schrag. Regular courses offered were five years of Spanish, four years of German, three years of French, and two years of Latin. Miss Constance Aitken, B.S., 8.A.
