Linguistics was team-taught at Southern Nazarene University by Howard Culbertson and Carolyn Waterman from the English department. It could be taken for credit as an English course or as a missions course since the whole area of communication is a branch of Cultural Anthropology.
Linguistics was offered at SNU about every two years.

| Writing Standards | Most courses at SNU contain a writing component. I expect students to produce written work that is focused, well developed, organized and relatively free of grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors. Papers falling short of this standard will not be graded. That work will be returned to the students for further revision and resubmission. See my writing checklist. |
