Join Ryane and Brett as they speak with alumnus and current Catholic University professor, Dr. Shawqi Talia. Shawqi serves as a lecturer of Arabic, Neo-Aramaic, and Garshuni in the Department of Semitic and Egyptian Languages and Literatures. He also had a long, 30+ year career serving as an interpreter for the U.S. Department of State. Listen in for insights on working in the State Department, using language for career development, and what the role of a researcher in the Middle East is like. Be sure to listen to Shawqi&#39;s original Neo-Aramaic poem!
