If you were looking at become a multiple language translator, would you consider getting a communication and culture degree or maybe something else?

I am thinking about becoming a multiple language translator, (this is a sort of continuation of my last question), mostly specializing in mediterranean languages. If you were in my position, do you think that a communication and culture degree would be helpful to me in reaching my career goals, or should I look for something else?
I have also considered a hospitality, travel, and tourism degree, but felt the communication and culture would better serve my desires.
What do you think about this?
Do you know of any other degree programs that are available that may be benefical to this career path?
Thanks for your imput
