The following new or greatly revised courses were proposed by the Department and approved for offering in the academic year 1994-95 by appropriate College and Campus authorities to meet the General Education requirements indicated in each case:

LING 210: Language History. Addresses the question 'Why does language change?'. Specific topics include: the history and origin of writing; why pronunciation changes; change in vocabulary and what it tells us about change in culture and society; the relation between "language" and "dialect"; multilingualism and its consequences, including Pidgins and Creoles; genetic relationship between languages, with focus on the "Indo-European" family (English, German, French, Russian, Latin, Greek, Sanskrit, etc.) and the relationships between human languages. (Prof. Hans Henrich Hock; Historical and Philosophical Perspectives.)

LING 240: Language in Human History. The role of language in the life of nations as a tool of communication, as a symbol of identity, and as a means of power. Scripts and orthographies. Language planning, culture, and language glossopolitics. (Prof. Zgusta; Historical and Philosophical Perspectives.)

LING 250: Language Diversity in the USA. The relationships within the social, linguistic, and cultural mosaic of language in the USA; language-related controversies in an historical context and their implications; language diversity, language use, language rights (e.g. English Only, multilingualism); creativity and identity in minority languages; the impact of American English on other Englishes and languages across cultures. (Prof. B. Kachru; Social Perspectives.)

LING 301: Elements of Syntax. Introduction to concepts and techniques essential for syntactic analysis and description, with special attention to testing analyses and justifying them. (Prof. Green; Composition II)
