From a student evaluation: “Thanks to Professor Clarissa I found out that there are countries not only in North America but in South America and elsewhere.”
I’m guessing that the student was trying to say “there are Spanish-speaking countries.” Or maybe s/he really just discovered that there are countries on other continents, who knows.

The Spanish was, of course, non-existent.

These are kids from farms in Missouri. Let’s understand their harsh reality. They know nothing before we get our hands on them.

I understand that. But I’m surprised by “ignoring Spain”.
