Intermediate Korean I is the first half of a two-semester intermediate course in spoken and written Korean for students who already have a basic knowledge of Korean and who want to improve their competence to a higher level. This course reinforces and increases students' facility with Korean in four language areas: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Students are encouraged to expand their knowledge and take confidence-inspiring risks through such activities as expanding knowledge of vocabulary, role play in authentic contexts, in-depth study of grammar, mini-presentations, various types of writing, Korean film reviews, skits, and Korean film making.
Prerequisite: KOR 102 or permission of the instructor.

The objectives of this portion of the course will be to complete the study of Latin grammar begun in the Fall semester and to explore more deeply at Roman cultural and social values and mores as they are embedded in Latin literature. To this end, toward the end of the course, we will begin to comment on style and literary and rhetorical techniques in selected passages of Latin works (for instance, Cornelius Nepos, Caesar, etc.).
