7 Conclusion
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> Our experience has shown that a small core of NLP classes housed in a Linguistics department and serving well-prepared students from other fields can greatly enhance the research and pedagogical infrastructure across many disciplines on-campus, while also preparing students for further grad studies or careers in the industrial NLP sector. Though challenges and issues remain, NLP courses are enjoying good enrollment, high satisfaction ratings, and appreciable learning outcomes.</Paragraph>
