Area Program are: Anthropology, Art, Agriculture, Biology (Zoology), Botany, Eco-
nomics, Geography, History, Journalism, Music, Political Science, Portuguese (Brazilian),
Sociology, and Spanish.

 1. The completion of at least twelve semester hours of undergraduate courses
 in inter-American subjects. (For area study majors in Arts and Sciences,
 and in Business Administration, see General Index).
 2. A reading knowledge of Spanish or Portuguese, depending upon the major
 area of the student's interest.
