Language Arts
See our American Sign Language (ASL), English, English as a Second Language (ESL), and Speech and Communication Studies programs.
Foreign Languages
Our Foreign Language program offers students the opportunity to gain working knowledge of Arabic, Chinese, French, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, and Tagalog. The ability to speak a second (or more!) language is an important skill in today's marketplace. And, if you travel, learning about the language of that country makes communication during your journey more enjoyable.
