------------------
Dear fellow LLTIers,

My supervisor, Chair of Foreign Languages, has asked me to find information 
that I am really at a loss to provide without your help.

Foreign Languages at SUNY New Paltz is going through a self-assessment study 
this year.  Faculty members of this department would like to change the name 
to be more inclusive as we will soon be housing an undergraduate EFL program.  
We have also been having trouble getting new culture courses approved, e.g. 
"Russian Today," because other departments on campus do not realize that 
teaching a language requires cultural knowledge as well.  They insist such 
courses should be offered through history or political science.

Two new names suggested have been "Foreign Languages, Literatures, & Culture" 
and "Languages, Literatures, & Culture."  Are you at an institution where 
'culture' is included in a department's name?  If so, could you please respond 
to me directly?

Thank you in advance,
