Ryan McManus ’13 Senior Profile: French and Francophone Studies

As the son of a French mother, I already had a strong incentive to take French classes as early as middle school. However, it wasn’t until spring semester 2012 after two years on the fence, that I actually decided to pursue a French major. A decision, I couldn’t have made without the support of my family, my fellow francophiles, my professors especially my adviser Michael Leruth, and two wonderful years in the French House.
