According to my count, and I am sure I have missed something,
college foreign language
programs in no less than 24
institutions have recently (past 2.5 yrs) been
threatened or eliminated in
Nevada, Maine, California, Georgia, Louisiana, Virginia, Arkansas, Texas,
Tennessee, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Oregon, Minnesota, Arizona,
North Carolina, Illinois. Florida and South Carolina.
Sometimes discontinuance committees are formed and action is taken in the Summer, when faculty advocates are with study abroad programs or on research trips.
