The ideal linguistics course for undergraduates planning to teach a foreign language is one taught by a specialist thoroughly familiar with the linguistic problems of the language in question. The specialist should also be aware of the comparative problems of the student's native language. American students expecting to teach a foreign language should be intensely involved in discovering the linguistic problems of English as compared to the linguistic problems of the language they are to teach. If a student's study time is limited, he should be able to take those courses which would be most useful to him in his future job. (Author/VM)
