| Title | America's Relationship with the World: How Can Languages Help |
| Body | From: FLTEACH Dr. Ruth J. Simmons, President of Brown University, great-great-granddaughter of slaves, 12th child of share-croppers, raised in Grapeland, Texas, a student of both Spanish and French, has written an important message on the reasons for studying a foreign language: "America's Relationship with the World: How Can Languages Help," The French Review 77, no. 4 (March 2004): 682-87. I found this a compelling argument, and though it convinces from practical reasons, it steps away from the purely pragmatic-materialistic spin some of us (myself included) have been giving to our argument.
