Can non-language instruction courses in a language area fulfill the major or minor requirement?
Yes. Courses such as ”The structure of Turkish”, ”The phonology of Russian”, ”Historical Chinese Phonology”, ”Syntax of Japanese”, ”History of English”, ”History of the Germanic Languages”, and the like are non-language instruction courses and can be used to satisfy major or minor requirements, as long as they are relevant. Needless to say, literature or culture courses (e.g., History of Russia) do not count. Courses that involve actual language instruction (e.g., Beginning Chinese) do not count either.
