As you think about your career, there are many professional paths where having the ability to speak another modern language or knowing a classical language is considered an asset.

MO ZHANG (LECTURER, CHINESE & LINGUISTICS)
I find myself encouraged and uplifted by the joys of working with students. I remember the questions they ask, the funny things they say, and the stories they share. My students help me become a more curious, creative, and compassionate person.
