World Cultures 
With increased globalization of information, culture, and commerce, students should strive to understand and appreciate cultures present outside the geopolitical boundaries of the United States. Courses in World Cultures open students to different ways of looking at the world; intermediate foreign language courses go beyond language skills training to offer students deeper insight into the cultures where these languages are primary. World Cultures courses will prepare the student with non-English language skills at the intermediate level OR introduce cultural and social aspects of human behavior in multiple or particular communities outside of the United States.
