[quote=Anonymous]Taking foreign language classes in college isn't just about learning to speak the language. The real value for most college students who won't speak the language professionally is that college students are learning about a culture and the world while learning to speak just a little. The college students are having to wslk in another person's shoes by stumbling through the process of communication. They are expanding their understanding of their own place in the world and learning how many other people there are who speak another language. They are learning NOT to be ethnocentric. THAT is why having real language instruction is important if you are going to claim that you are "college educated."[/quote]
