Upon visiting the website for the languages department, I read that their goal is to teach their students of the world and to prepare them for "citizentship in a multi-cultural, multi-lingual global community." To be completely honest, if you want to prepare yourself for a world ful of cultures, what you should do is immerse yourself in that culture, travel, and get to know the people, and not just take one of the rinky dink language courses provided at my school. Although, I love my french class so so much, what about the kids that take spanish just because it's easy, or take italian because they're italian. I don't even think they want to be there and leave the country, they just want to learn so it looks good on their college application. Mind you, I'm taking french because I want to go to France and I think it'll help me in my future studies in Europe and where ever I go, be it England, or Scotland, or Africa, or the Carribean. It will help me in the future, and I'm glad for that.
ON ANOTHER NOTE: I fully intend on taking a nap so PEACE.
