First-Year Chinese II
First Year Chinese II (CHNX1002) is the continuation of First Year Chinese I (CHNSX1001). It is designed for students with some prior knowledge of Mandarin Chinese and either one semester or one year of college-level learning experience in Mandarin Chinese. Upon successful completion of First Year Chinese II, students are expected to reach Novice High to Intermediate Low proficiency. At this level, you will be able to understand, interpret, speak, and write about everyday topics such as greetings, dining, and exchanging personal information. In addition to language skills, you will gain an understanding of the cultural products, practices, and perspectives of the Chinese-speaking world and be able to relate them to your own cultural experiences. As a language course, it emphasizes immersion: Chinese will be the primary language spoken and heard in the classroom.

FIRST-YEAR SEMINAR WORKSHOP
BORDER STORIES (WKSHOP)
First-Year Seminars initiate students into the academic life of the College by offering intellectually engaging experiences in which students and faculty from a wide range of home departments work through challenging material, often across disciplinary lines. Each one-semester seminar is designed to develop essential skills for college work, such as the ability to read critically and analytically, to speak clearly and effectively, and to write logically and persuasively.
First-Year Seminar Workshops — 4-credit versions of First-Year Seminars—are specially designed for students who believe they would benefit from extra support with their critical reading and academic writing skills. In addition to regular seminar meetings twice per week, students are also required to participate in six Friday “writing labs” over the course of the semester.
First-Year Seminar Workshops vary in content. Descriptions can be found in Vergil.

Literature Humanities II
In Literature Humanities, students make sense of literary texts together, on paper and in discussion. We read significant and challenging books that require collective exploration in a seminar setting to be best understood and appreciated, books that enable us to ask questions about literature and how it works, about our place in histories and traditions, about ourselves as beings and members of a society. We read with and against the grain of canon and tradition, and we pursue understanding together, in a shared classroom community, to learn not only how to be better readers and writers but also how to be in intellectual community with one another. Over the course of the semester, students become acquainted with specific works of literature; they become aware of those works’ relations to one another; and they become conversant in the questions those works ask and the questions they make it possible for us to ask.

ELEMENTARY ITALIAN II
Ciao!
I am so thrilled that you have chosen to study Italian at Barnard. This class marks the beginning of your journey through the wonderful language, history, and culture of Italy. I am hopeful that our time together will be fruitful, informative, and fun.
This document outlines the course objectives, requirements and policies for Elementary Italian 2. I have chosen to outline these policies in English so that they are as clear as possible, but
Italian is the official language of the course
, and classes will be conducted accordingly. Some English will be used at the beginning of the semester as we get to know each other, but it will be phased out over the course of our time together.
