Strengthening Foreign Languages in Humanities and in Internation Education

Dirks, J. Edward

Bulletin of the Association of Departments of Foreign Languages, 8, 2, 26-30, Nov 76

It is imperative for the future of American world leadership to have a working language facility at the center of international studies programs. (CHK)
