Note Bene: Majors must take 8 hours of literature, at least 4 of which must be selected from 346 or 347. Thus a student could fulfill the 8-hour literature requirement by taking 346 and 347, or 346 and two 2-hour lit. courses, or 347 and two 2-hour lit. courses. French Film counts as a literature course.
French Minor Requirements: 20 hours beyond intermediate level. Required courses are 331 and 346 or 347. Other courses, which may include Wheaton in France, should be selected in consultation with a department advisor.
