I’m a native speaker [of Spanish or Portuguese] and am interested in doing a major or minor in the department. What course should I take?
Native Portuguese speakers should contact the Director of the Portuguese Program, Professor Darlene Sadlier. Native Spanish speakers should contact the Director of Undergraduate Studies. Call (812) 855-8376, option 4 to schedule these appointments. Many of our majors and minors are native speakers, but their particular experiences with the language are often quite different. For example, you may have grown up speaking Spanish or Portuguese at home but never had the opportunity to study or write in the language. Or you may have grown up attending school in the language and therefore have a relatively advanced written and reading level. The DUGS and the Portuguese Director can discuss your situation with you in order to determine what course you should start with.
