About Us
About the Department
The Department of Spanish and Portuguese is one of the language and
literature departments which share Dartmouth Hall, the historic architectural
center of the campus and the focal point for the study of foreign languages,
literatures, and cultures. The teaching staff of the
Department represents a broad range of interests and specializations and is
dedicated to a high degree of excellence in teaching and scholarship.
In Spanish and Portuguese, the Department offers beginning language through
advanced seminars, individual studies and honors programs, and a uniquely
varied array of overseas
programs. In all its activities, the Department seeks to affirm, within the
liberal arts tradition, the importance of Iberian and Latin American culture
for a nation which is increasingly aware of the wealth of its own rich Hispanic
heritage.
