Curricula, not curriculums...

Apparently Latin wasn't on the curriculum at that school. :(
Latin was part of the curriculum, an optional one that I did take. Luckily the lingua franca of this site is English.
Both are correct.
Well, when I learned Latin, the plural of -um was -a. Just like the plural of -us was -i. People say campuses, but they also say alumni (not alumnuses). One should be consistent, imho...
We speak English, not Latin. Latin may be the origin, but the context of this conversation is in the English language and English has adopted the word Curriculums, which is consistent with other English rules.
"." not "..."
