- ADMINISTRATIVE HISTORY
As part of the French and Italian Studies department at St. Jerome's University, the French section is responsible for teaching French language, literature, and culture courses. The faculty at St. Jerome's co-operates and co-ordinates the French program with their counterparts in the French department at the University of Waterloo. Initially the French program was part of the Romance Languages department, later the Classics and Romance Languages department and in 1980 it became an independent department until it merged, at St. Jerome's, with the Italian department in 2002.
St. Jerome's has academic responsibility for all French students enrolled through St. Jerome's University, the department receives its budget from St. Jerome's, and hires its faculty independently of the department at the University of Waterloo.
