The UCLA Department of Spanish and Portuguese is dedicated to the study and teaching of the languages, literatures, and cultures of the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking world. Classes in Spanish were first offered at the Los Angeles State Normal School in 1917. For the first five years after the school became the Southern Branch of the University, both Spanish and French were taught by the Department of Romanic Languages. In 1924, the two language departments were separated, and Leonard D. Bailiff became chairman of the Department of Spanish. He held this position until 1942 when a combined Department of Spanish and Italian was established under the chairmanship of Marion A. Zeitlin, with courses offered in these two languages and their respective literatures and also in Portuguese, which had been taught in the department since 1938. Seven years later, the department was divided and the Spanish department, with John C. Crow as chairman, was officially designated the Department of Spanish and Portuguese. The Spanish and Portuguese language laboratory, incorporating the latest in electronic equipment for the teaching of foreign languages, was opened in 1964. Plans for further expansion of departmental offerings included the establishment of instruction in methodology for teachers at the elementary school level, a major program in Portuguese, and undergraduate courses in Hispanic folklore.
