Clubs and Student Organizations

Join a club to find students who share your passion for language. Who knows? You might find a great conversation partner and a lifelong friend. 

Student Clubs and Honor Societies

Most clubs welcome any level of language proficiency and host both language and cultural events. Be sure to ask if your language club has a language table, an informal meeting over a meal. It's a great way to practice your language in a casual setting.
