French

The Department of Foreign Languages and Literature offers major and minor programs of study in French and Spanish as well as supporting course work for Westminster College's general education program. The French program seeks to develop speaking, reading, writing and listening proficiency and an appreciation of the literatures and cultures of the Francophone world. In addition to the practical application of such skills and knowledge to professional fields such as education, business and science, it is believed that students will gain insight into their own language and culture through first hand knowledge of other peoples' means of expression and cultural heritages.

Language instruction is supported by Westminster's state-of-the-art Multi-media Language and Learning Laboratory located in the Hazel Wing of the Reeves Library. Students are encouraged to use the computer, audio and video resources of the laboratory to develop their language skills.
