WHY LEARN a language if you don't speak it? That's a prize saying of those who criticize contemporary education.
The University has overcome this criticism by installing sound rooms where language students may listen to recordings. If they follow them closely, subtleties of the language can be acquired more easily.
Here students may listen to short wave radio, tape or wire recordings, and even music native to the country and the language they are trying to puzzle out.
Thus far, two rooms are in operation. One gives instruction in Spanish and French, and the other handles German, Swedish, Japanese, and Russian. The rooms are used by individuals during free hours, by classes during scheduled lab sessions.
