Broodening World Wide Communication The language department personifies a need for communication with others. Four languages are offered for study: French, sGerman, Latin and Spanish. Once basic language skills have been mastered, the student is encouraged to speak the language fluently. Through the use of language drills and the language lab, stu- dents become familiar with pronunciation and uses of a language. In some cases advanced language students are encouraged to take summer study tours to countries where their chosen language is spoken. Several of the teachers in the department have traveled to or resided in the countries whose language they teach. They are then better enabled to give their students a comprehen- sive view of the country and its people. Thus cultural understanding and inter-cultural communication is encouraged. This year the language department has added four new teachers: Miss Stapp, Mrs. Fink, Mr. Roman, and Mr. Reynolds. Mrs. Fink teaches French, and the re- maining three teach Spanish.
