A minor in Spanish is offered to those who wish to complement study in another discipline. Course work can only approximate a bilingual setting and does not necessarily guarantee appropriate language proficiency. Therefore, students are encouraged to immerse themselves in the target language and to complete more than the minimum amount of language classes.
