Latin, Spanish, French, and, since mid-term, Ger- man, are included in the course offering, which is designed to make the student proficient in his con- versation and appreciative in his reading. The aquisition of fundamental skills and basic vocabu- lary is stressed in the beginning years, while third- and fourth-year courses build toward an apprecia- tion of the literature. Finally, outside activities as well as regular class sessions attempt to create in the student an understanding of the other cultures and peoples which he studies.
