With a growing Spanish-speaking workforce and diverse campus community, university employees sometimes experience difficulty communicating with one another, prompting officials to increase supervisor training and English as a second language courses.
More than 100 employees, 44 of whom are enrolled this semester, have participated in ESL classes since the spring semester as part of a nine-step plan developed nearly a year and a half ago to address alleged workplace abuse, said Human Resources Director Dale Anderson. Because workers can now nominate themselves for the classes, there is a waiting list of about 35 to 40 people, and the program will likely take about 60 people in the spring, Anderson said.

Simple solution. Just make English the offical language of the U.S.
Problem solved!
