The Department of Modern Languages & Literatures engages students and community members at all levels. We invite area high school students to campus to showcase their language learning, as well as learn about opportunities in college and beyond. Our undergraduate students are invited to join various language clubs, celebrating cultures through interaction with native speakers, watching films, even cooking demonstrations! International graduate students all over campus are also encouraged to attend our language clubs and share their culture with others.
What can you do? Limitless possibilities wait for you, and we will help you explore.
