Biographical Note

Nota Biográfica

Dr. Scott is a faculty member within the Department of Modern Foreign Languages at Anderson University. The Department of Modern Foreign Languages offers an academically challenging program. Students spend a minimum of six credit hours or an entire semester studying abroad. Financial aid may be applied to their study—something many colleges do not allow. Through foreign study experience, Tri-S trips, and local opportunities, foreign language students leave AU with a thorough education and a global awareness.

A major in one of the modern languages offers students a triple focus: language, culture, and literature. After successful completion, majors will be equipped to comprehend and interpret written and spoken language, express themselves in the written and spoken word of that language, have a fundamental understanding of the literature and civilizations of the countries represented by their target language, and value other cultures as responsible global citizens. Students are prepared linguistically for graduate study as well as careers in education, health care, social services, missionary service, law enforcement, business, or public service.

The Department of Modern Foreign Languages offers the following majors:

• French
• French (complementary major)
• French Teaching
• Spanish
• Spanish (complementary major)
• Spanish Teaching
