No, it wasn't unique. I took Spanish and German. Russian, Italian, Latin, Greek and French were also offered. World Cultures was a joke, or at least my teacher was a joke.
But the point I was trying to make is that there are folks who would get rid of foreign language requirements, fire all the language teachers, 'cause "We are all Americans who should speak English and only English!"

The fun thing about evolution (and science in general) is that it happens whether you believe in it or not.
