In trying to academically upgrade its curriculum, the department has begun an experimental ex- emption program for freshmen and has in- stituted a more complete offering of upper level literature courses. To provide students with a voice in departmental affairs, regular meetings have been initiated with English Majors and Minors. The Department of Romance Languages offers both the major and the minor stu- dents an opportunity to acquire the conver- sational skills, cultural background, and lit- erary knowledge.
