Upon prior approval, up to 5 hours of the required 30 hours may be selected from HIST 410 "History of Mexico," HIST 456 "History of Latin America, " ED 360 "Hispanics in American Society," ED 361 "Foundations of Bilingual Studies" or ED 421 "Second Language Acquisition Strategies" provided they are not being applied to another minor.
2. A grade of "C-" or better for each course counting toward the completion of the minor.
3. Students having returned
from a recognized study abroad program will have their transcript evaluated.
Any appropriate course in language, culture and literature will be
counted toward the minor.
4. A minimum of 10 hours counting
toward the minor must be completed at Eastern and must include at least
one upper division course in literature or culture where the
emphasis is on reading and writing Spanish (e.g., SPAN 339 or 343).
5. The following courses may also be applied toward the minor provided they are not being applied toward the minor in Hispanic and Bilingual Studies: SPAN 320, 321, 322, 420.
6. A minimum score of Intermediate-High on the Oral Proficiency Exam. (See below.)
Students who are seeking a minor in either German or Spanish must attempt the Oral Proficiency Exam at least two quarters prior to graduation, e. g., students graduating in June should test by the end of Fall Quarter. The exam is given by arrangement. It is the student's responsibility to contact the appropriate faculty member to set up the exam.
The Oral Proficiency Exam follows the recommendations of the American Council of Teachers of Foreign Languages (ACTFL). In order to demonstrate proficiency for the German or Spanish minor, students must achieve a rating of Intermediate-High on the ACTFL scale. At this level students should be able to create with the language, ask and answer questions, follow courtesy requirements, and be intelligible to native speakers not accustomed to dealing with foreigners.
In addition, students should be able to participate fully in casual conversations, express facts, give instructions, describe, report, and provide narration about current, past, and future events.
