At Boise State University, it is not uncommon for students to take a class in Basque Studies sometime in their college career. Students may even earn a minor in Basque studies at Boise State. Only a few universities offer these unique courses in the U.S. The Basque studies program at Boise State is a multidisciplinary study of the Basque people while exploring language, history, politics, and economics to foster lifelong learning. “Euskaldunak,” is what the Basque call themselves which means, “one who speaks Basque.” The Basque country runs along the 43th parallel at the Western edge of the Pyrenees Mountains which is about the same parallel as Boise. It is made up of seven provinces in France and Spain. About three million people live in the Basque country and about 60,000 people of Basque descent live in the U.S. The largest concentration of Basque Americans resides in Boise according to the Basque Studies Department at Boise State. The vast majority of Basques come from the province, Bizkaia according to the Basque Community of Boise.

Glorianna Cortabitarte, a Spanish teacher who is also from Basque descent, said, “My father came over to America to work with the sheep in Idaho. We’ve been here ever since.” Euskara is the Basque language which has existed for several thousand years. The roots are unknown…

about human and family development. Firstly, family structure and boundaries are transactional (Perosa, 2009). When a behaviour or role within the family changes for one member, another family member is impacted and their behaviour and role also changes as a result (Perosa, 2009). The assumption is that for every action, there is a corresponding reaction, and changes made by individual family members impact other members and the family dynamic as a whole. Human and family development is…

This was a creation of the "Navarre Plan". Named by Henry Navarre who was an appointed commander of French forces during the Indochina war. Progress during the Conflict was tremendously problematic to judge whereas there were not main fronts of battle. Nothing during the battles had been in a central location and the French units appeared to be overreached.

compassion towards the Huguenots, as they were growing in numbers in her kingdom, but this angered the Catholic Guises.
