Minnesota high-school senior Catherine Cojocaru describes her experiences from when her school hosted a group of visiting French students. She writes that she hopes the visit taught her fellow students about the personal and professional benefits of learning another language. She points out that many careers, especially in government, prefer or require bilingual abilities. Fluency in another tongue also makes a person more likely to explore the world, she writes. 
Researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center tested two groups of adults to see how learning a foreign language would affect their brain activity. One group received instruction in a classroom, while the other learned through immersion. Neuroscientists found that those in the immersion setting displayed brain functions more closely resembling those of native speakers.
