The
French and Spanish Communities in Mary Lyndon Hall have just
completed their third year of operation. Students who are
members enhance their program of study as they truly “live”
in their target language. |
French community activities are organized by Dr. Cathy Jones
and the Resident Coordinator, Deana Shuman. Some
of the highlights this year included a pot-luck dinner held to celebrate
National French Week, attendance at a French film festival, and
a visit to Atlanta’s High Museum to see the Paris Impressionism
exhibit.

For
Spanish, Dr. Elizabeth Wright and the Resident
Coordinator Mónica Ruiz-Melendez organize
activities, with George Melendez also providing
significant assistance. Highlights from their year included a Spanish
Tapas night, a Latin Jazz concert, and a Spring Break trip to Puerto
Rico.
| Members
of both language communities have joined forces to perform
community service at area hospitals and to sponsor a Poetry
Reading night, during which members performed poems and songs
in both Spanish and French. |
