Join us for a screening of A gaiola dourada (The Gilded Cage) on August 27th. This film follows the lives of a hardworking Portuguese family living in France.  Very charming, the story beautifully blends culture, comedy, and family dynamics, offering both laughs and a thoughtful look at the immigrant experience. 

The film will be shown with English subtitles. Everyone is welcome!

Dr. Fuad Elhage, Senior Lecturer of Spanish at UGA, designed this course, Diversity Through Dance, which blends Spanish language and culture with music and dance and includes a partnership with the Athens Community Council on Aging (ACCA).

Around this time last year, I took home a flyer that had been hanging in Gilbert Hall, one that quickly populated many walls and crevices of the building, advertising the Buenos Aires Study Away program. I had recently changed my Spanish minor to a double major, confident that I wanted to spend the rest of my undergraduate experience strengthening my knowledge and fluency in the language, even if it meant a more demanding workload.
