Italy is the spiritual home of classical art, opera, and architecture.  A major in Italian will immerse the student in this world.  Italy is a key player in all of the major events in modern Western history and knowledge of Italian will give the student a new point of view for these events.  Italy’s economy is a wonderful balance of industry in the north and agriculture in the south.  This balance helps Italy remain in the top ten listing for gross domestic product (GDP).
