Hello all,
I'm in a PhD program and I need to find an online or print-based correspondence course that is designed for grad students who need to demonstrate reading knowledge in Spanish.
I've asked around and searched and searched the web, but am having no luck. I can find other languages but I need Spanish.
Any help is welcome.
Thanks, Lily

Continuing Studies at Wisconsin-Madison has good reading and grammar courses through their Independent Learning division.

https://il.wisconsin.edu/catalog/course.aspx?course=U912-101

But you can also get books like Annette Cash's _Spanish for Reading and Translation_ or _Spanish for Reading Knowledge_, by Jeff Kirsch

Online, there is livemocha.com
The BBC online Spanish program: http://www.bbc.co.uk/languages/spanish/
and a whole host of others, including the now public-domain FSI materials from the US government:
