The foreign language lab helps students
with their language skills via audio
and videotapes in accordance with
the level of the language they are studying.
"Students [can] come here to work
on computers, watch videotapes and
take a maximum of two audiotapes corresponding
to their book," Quincy
Stevens, a training lab technician, said.
Stevens said the lab's policy on checking
out audio tapes includes students
bringing two blank tapes in exchange
for two pre-recorded tapes with the appropriate
level of foreign language of it.

member. A university review board
recognizes the top applicants, then the
applications are forwarded to the national
competitions.
In the course of the past two
decades, over two dozen university students
have been recognized through
the help of faculty members. The Office
of Summer Programs and Scholarships
hopes to make the process a
collective effort between staff and faculty
who are already familiar with I
many of the scholarships. At present,
a 13-member advisory council is facilitating
the process.
