Enhance your language skills at the 成人大片 through French and Spanish conversation hours, tutoring, honor societies, cultural events, and study abroad programs. Gain the communication skills and global experience to thrive in today’s interconnected world.
Additional options may be available, in consultation with the chairperson of the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures.
As each of the categories (a)-(c) above involves an activity that bears at least three hours of credit, the minimum number of hours associated with Honors in the Major for the Spanish B.A. will generally be nine. As categories (d) and (e) do not involve coursework, however, a student selecting these options could potentially complete Honors in the Major with fewer than nine hours of credit. With proper planning, any credit hours related to the Honors in the Major for the Spanish B.A. will count among the required or elective coursework for the major.
*Examples of public venues include a UNF-affiliated undergraduate research showcase (e.g., SOARS, International Research Symposium), an outside conference or publication, or a special event on campus or in the community.
**Students should consult with the chairperson of Languages, Literatures and Cultures for approval of activities, for information on tracking hours, and to sign a waiver prior to participating in off-campus activities that will count toward completion of this requirement.
The language above was approved by the 成人大片Faculty Association in December 2019.

is dedicated to preserving and promoting the legacy of Tierra, a socialist magazine that played a critical role in shaping the political and cultural landscape of Yucatan, Mexico, during the early 1920s. We present the 33 issues from volume 3, which were published between May and December of 1923. These issues cover the historic governorship (1922-1924) of Felipe Carrillo Puerto and his administration’s efforts to achieve land reform, advance the rights of women, and celebrate the local Indigenous past, prior to his assassination in early 1924.
This project is led by Dr. Clayton McCarl and Damiana Leyva-Loría of the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, and has involved over 20 student contributors at UNF.
Accessible Classics: Digital Adaptations for People with Reading Difficulties is a collaborative project that aims at making classic literary and educational texts accessible to people with reading difficulties. The project relies on the premise that access to reading is a universal right and that inclusive education can erode the borders that segregate communities and individuals. Led by Dr. María Ángeles Fernández Cifuentes, associate professor of Spanish, this project has involved students from the 成人大片Spanish program as primary collaborators.

The OER-Immersive Multimedia Materials Project aims at the design and development of Open Educational Resources (OER) in the classroom as a model to integrate community-based learning and undergraduate research in lower and upper-level courses of the Spanish Program at UNF. It specifically involves the design of immersive educational materials with a focus on Virtual Reality and reading accessibility.
Led by Dr. Johana Barrero and Dr. María Ángeles Fernández Cifuentes, the OER-Immersive Multimedia Materials Project is associated with Accessible Classics: Digital Adaptations for People with Reading Difficulties. Several students of Spanish at 成人大片have collaborated with Dr. Fernández Cifuentes and Dr. Barrero on this project.
is an ongoing digital oral history project at 成人大片that engages heritage speakers of Spanish in documenting the experiences of the growing Hispanic/Latinx community in our region. The interviews are designed and carried out by students in SPN3351 Communication and Communities for Heritage Speakers.

Led by Dr. Constanza López, associate professor of Spanish, the project has involved nearly 200 成人大片students as collaborators since beginning in 2012.UNF’s Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures hosts annual events that celebrate culture, creativity, and community. Highlights include the Altar de Muertos honoring ancestors, Embroidering for Peace and Memory promoting human rights, the International Poetry Festival, and Voces y Caras oral history presentations. These events engage students and the wider campus in meaningful traditions and dialogue.
Día de Muertos, or the Day of the Dead celebration, is a Mexican tradition celebrated during the first days of November to receive the souls of the persons that have passed away. The tradition includes an altar with personal objects, favorite foods, and colorful papel picado, candles and bright marigolds.
The celebration coincides with the Monarch butterfly's migration to the south, particularly the state of Michoacán in Mexico. Monarch butterflies represent the spirits of the ancestors but has also become a symbol of the struggle of immigrants in the search of a better life. In 2008, UNESCO inscribed the Day of the Dead celebration as a Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
In observation of the Day of the Dead, the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cutlures presents an annual altar de muertos in the Language and Culture Lab, Building 15, Room 1105.Participants are invited to bring a picture of their ancestors that passed away and a personal object (not valuable).
Embroidering for Peace and Memory is an annual event at the 成人大片 (UNF) that celebrates diversity and human rights through the activism of collective embroidery. We invite students, faculty, and staff from all over the campus to embroider together, on white fabrics, messages of peace and the stories of people from all over the world who have suffered the violation of their rights. The project began in 2012 and, to date, approximately 600 pieces of embroidery have been produced in more than 13 languages, highlighting the culture and diversity of 成人大片and the North Florida community. In recent years, this project has also involved students from Stanton College Preparatory High School. To highlight the importance of this initiative at our university, and to share it with the world, we have created the .
Dr. Constanza López, associate professor of Spanish, leads this project with support from the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures and the Digital Humanities Institute.
Every fall, the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures holds a week of events and open office hours designed to help current and prospective students meet our faculty and learn more about our programs.
Every year in the spring, the students who contribute to the oral history project Voces y Caras: Hispanic Communities of North Florida present their work to the campus and community at an event in the 成人大片Art Gallery, Founders Hall, Building 2/Room 1001.
Each fall, the interviews are presented from mid-September to mid-October as part of an exhibit organized for celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month at UNF. The interviews are presented at the 成人大片Art Gallery, Founders Hall, Building 2/Room 1001.
