Foreign Language Club"Foreign Languages and National Security"On November 9th, the Foreign Languages Club hosted a very lively presentation and discussion about "Foreign Languages and National Security", led by personnel from the Cryptologic Center of the National Security Agency in San Antonio. The US needs more competent speakers of a number of critical languages, and, in any career, the professional profile of any person is improved when he or she can speak one or two foreign languages. During the presentation, one important point was stressed: even if you cannot speak one of the critical languages the country needs right now, the fact that you have learned other languages means that your brain has been "wired", or "exercised" for language acquisition, and you will more easily learn another language. Always remember to mention in your resumes that you have studied languages!
