Spanish

The study of Spanish aims to explain, evaluate, and communicate ideas and concepts through reading, writing, and verbal processes through the creative use of words (literature) and culture (civilization). This study affords insight into foreign attitudes and methods and encourages free communication, written and oral. 

No associate's degree is offered with a major in Spanish. Spanish courses may be used to fulfill requirements for an Associate in Arts degree with a major in Liberal Arts: Arts & Humanities emphasis. See Liberal Arts: Arts & Humanities emphasis listing for information on this major.
