In spite of the global economic crisis and slowdown in world trade, the future of international business is still bright. Now more than ever, you will likely work in the global economy. You might be working abroad or working in your home country for either a local multinational corporation or for a foreign-based company that is enter- ing your market. Whatever your future brings, it will be important for you to understand how to negotiate foreign languages and culture. It is one thing to study a language in school, but you also need to get used to different countries and cultures as well. Cultural is broad, and language is just one aspect. BYU is a great place to study, because over 70 percent of our students speak a second language and many have lived abroad for a year or more. In your classes, you will be able to interact with students from other countries but also with U.S. students with broad international experience. In any given class, you will have classmates with international experience in multiple countries in all regions of the world. These students have gained a knowledge of and love for the people, language, and culture of places where they have lived.

  • HISTORY of Wasatch County
    A HISTORY OF = 'Wasatch County Jessie L. Embry UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF Wasatch County Jessie L. Embry Native Americans used Wasatch County for hunting and gathering activities, but prob­ ably no permanent settlers lived in the area until the Mormons arrived in 1859. They established communities following Joseph Smith's Plat of the City of Zion. Rather than living on isolated homesteads, they lived in towns and set up their farms surrounding the villages. The harsh weather and distant water sources of the region also encouraged coop­ eration. The area became known for its dair­ ies and cattle and sheep industries. But while the towns in Wasatch County started as typical Mormon villages, they have become more dependent on outside eco­ nomic forces. The state and federal govern­ ments have developed many of the county's natural resources, but they generally are used outside the area. The county includes much of the Uinta and parts of the Wasatch and Ashley national forests and boasts three res­ ervoirs: Strawberry (1910), Deer Creek (1946), and Jordanelle (1995); however, the stored water is used elsewhere. Wasatch County's history is the story of a transition from independent Mormon villages to de­ pendent colonies and bedroom communi­ ties of larger population centers.
