When the ancient Romans would conquer a new place or a new people, they would leave the language and the customs in tact – they would even let the conquered people rule themselves in most cases, appointing a governor to maintain a foothold in the region.” Wilson leaned against the whiteboard as he spoke, his posture relaxed, his hands clasped loosely.“This was part of what made Rome so successful. They didn't try to make everyone Romans in the process of conquering them. When I went to Africa with the Peace Corp, a woman who worked with the Corp said something to me that I have often thought about since. She told me 'Africa is not going to adapt to you. You are going to have to adapt to Africa.' That is true of wherever you go, whether it's school or whether it's in the broader world.

I [set aside] half an hour to study language.

I don't think that's true, that there are majors that can't study abroad. If there are students who want to, we have short-term or summer programs if they don't want to do a full academic semester, and we can also talk with the heads of their departments and try to work something out.

We feel that this is a major we want our students to be able to study and are very happy to include it with our other business majors.

Students enjoy this class so much. It became very popular [and] it fills up quickly.
