French Fellowship
French Fellowship aims to create an opportunity for students interested in the French language and culture to build their language skills and participate in Francophone cultural activities within a community of other students while simultaneously growing in their faith. These language, culture, and faith opportunities are created through weekly Bible-study-style meetings which include Francophone cultural components and also monthly events focusing on the French language and Francophone culture.
French Table
Led by a student with advanced skills, students meet once a week in the cafeteria for casual conversation and language practice over dinner. Any member of the campus community who is interested in using or improving their language skills is welcome to join.
