International Languages

The International Languages program supports students seeking to become multilingual and to work effectively with diverse cultures.  The study of a language complements many majors including education, English, history, nursing, occupational therapy, humanities, international studies, social and cultural studies. Learning Spanish is of particular importance to students who minor in Latin American studies. American Sign Language, created to meet the needs of the deaf community, is a linguistically complete language, and is the core of a new literary tradition, in both poetry and theater.
