Hello,

I've been assigned the task of writing recommendations for our
Associates Degree in General Education.

The articles cited from the last review (4 years ago) to justify the
inclusion of foreign language study are a bit dated.

Can anyone recommend some recent articles that document the well-known
fact that studying a foreign language makes you smarter?

Thanks,
