3. The Languages and Humanities Department offers classes in languages such as Carolinian, Chamorro, Chinese, Japanese, American Sign Language, and Spanish.
4. The Department offers courses in humanities such as literature, speech, and philosophy. In addition to their content, these courses foster critical thinking skills
