Students are encouraged to study a foreign language...

at Grinnell and to extend the use of foreign languages into other disciplinary areas. Students may apply their foreign language skills to the discovery of content in a variety of disciplines which make use of translated material. There are a number of opportunities regularly available for students who wish to use their language skills in nonforeign language classes across the curriculum. Courses or "Plus-2" options designated as having a foreign language option make it possible for students to do some of the readings for those courses in the original language rather than in translation. Offerings with the foreign language option are listed in the registration material for each semester.
