As many schools do, Knox College has a modern languages department. However, unlike larger schools that have individual departments for each language, Knox has one department that encompasses each of the tiny individual foreign language departments.
The German department, for example, is comprised of one Professor Emeritus, one full time faculty member, and one teaching intern. The Spanish department seems to have more professors, but it also probably has more majors. Knox also has a French department.
Recently the Japanese department was moved so as to be separate from the modern languages department and Chinese was added as a possible course of study. Adding Chinese, though, was at the expense of the Russian department.
The Modern Language Department has one class of its own: Intro to Linguistics. This class is not a requirement for the major.
