Abstract

Five years ago, Chinese and Japanese were taught in scarcely any schools in the United States. For the past two years, seventy-five schools have offered instruction in Chinese. Last year nearly twenty schools in continental United States and an additional thirty in Hawaii taught Japanese. The number of schools offering both languages has increased again this fall. Instruction is concentrated in six metropolitan areas: Boston, New York, Chicago, St. Louis, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Summer institutes for teachers of Chinese have been available since 1961 at San Francisco State College and since 1962 at Seton Hall University. The latter institution has pro vided a similar service to teachers of Japanese since 1963. All indications point to continued growth for both languages in American secondary schools.
