<p>My girlfriend just got back from Destination SMU and found out they are requiring engineering students to take three English courses and 2 years(4 semesters) of a foreign language. She has now taken SMU off her list because of the foreign language requirement. She will not be joining me at SMU… She is now trying to decided between Texas A&M and UT. She says they understand engineering is difficult enough without adding to the requirements. She wonders if they will now change their engineering to a BA in Mechanical Engineering. MIT doesn’t even require foreign language for its engineering graduates…</p>
