RUTH MORSE Mt. Holyoke College; A.B. Latin II, III, IV LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT The language department has a view on the world. The study of languages reveals to the student new areas of past and contemporary culture and brings about a closer rapport with other peoples, a pressing need in today’s interdependent world. As he progresses in this study, he comes to see what a precious cultural heritage is his own native tongue, and, to understand better the building blocks of his own language. Aside from all utilitarian considerations . . . college admissions requirements, future vocation, foreign travel, etc. ... the acquisition of language skills is an enjoyable and rewarding experience for those who will put forth the effort. Suffield offers a solid background in three languages. One may take four years of French, Latin, or Spanish. In his sophomore year he may add a second language and carry it through for three years. As we develop our program, we hope to prepare our students to face today’s complex world as well-rounded citizens. MARY C.
