“The [Linguistics] Program also sponsored the development of a series of Navajo language courses, which were formally established in the Department of Modern and Classical Languages in 1970. Closely associated with the teaching of Navajo was the beginning of [Dr. Bernard] Spolsky’s Navajo Reading Study project… which [was also part of the Department of Modern and Classical Languages and] supported a number of graduate students in Linguistics and brought the Navajo Linguists William Morgan [Sr.] and Robert W. Young to campus as adjunct professors and researchers.” (Bills MS, 1989)
