Faculty Highlight

Satomi Suzuki-Chenoweth

"As I love language-learning myself, I enjoy my work the most when I can pass on my knowledge and experience to students as language-learning can serve to see the world from a perspective other than one’s own."

Student Highlight

Jocelyn Guerrero

"My degree is unique and allows me to gain an in-depth knowledge of topics in the United States, French-speaking countries, and Spanish-speaking countries, which will distinguish me as a candidate for jobs in the future."

Alumni Highlight

Lianet Fleites-Claro
