The study of the Spanish language

  • provides the personal satisfaction of broadening one’s communicative skills,
  • increases the student’s transfer options as numerous four-year schools have foreign language requirements,
  • enriches foreign travel through the ability to communicate with others in their own language,
  • provides exposure to the richness of cultural variety,
  • fosters understanding and appreciation of one’s cultural heritage,
  • opens new job opportunities,
  • develops a new perspective on one’s own language and culture,
  • offers salary increments in certain occupations.

The ability to speak a foreign language is often viewed as one of the hallmarks of the aware and educated individual.
