Language Clubs

Language clubs are organized by students with a passion for language and a desire to share that passion with the greater AU community to promote language learning and cultural understanding. Typical activities include:

• conversation tables where speakers at all levels meet informally and speak only the target language
• movie nights where club members watch a movie in the target language and discuss
• sponsoring speakers for the AU community, for example the French Deputy Ambassador
• embassy visits
• museum visits
• themed dinners
• holiday celebrations such as the Cinco de Mayo, Chinese New Year, Mardi Gras
