Employers are reporting an urgent need for graduating students to be proficient in Spanish. The United States Census Bureau reports that the Hispanic population will continue to be the largest ethnic minority in the United States. By 2060, Hispanics will make up 28.6 percent of the U.S. population. As the Hispanic demographic continues to increase, students who are proficient in Spanish will have an advantage in many professions and in life. A bachelor’s in Spanish equips students with the cultural perspective and understanding needed to connect and serve Hispanic populations.
