Language Cafe

You can improve your foreign language skills AND eat free cookies! How great is that?

It is the Foreign Language Coffee Hour and it is only at Eckles Library. Once a month you can kick back on our comfortable 1st floor couches, drink some coffee and converse in a foreign language with a GW professor and other students. All levels of proficiency are welcome! It’s stress free and the best way to solidify what you are learning in class.

When? Today from 2:00-3:00pm (Hebrew from 2:30-3:30pm)
Where? Eckles 1st Floor
Why? So you can talk to that cute boy you meet while studying abroad.

Juno

The votes are in and, if you’ve been paying attention, it should come as no surprise that Juno was our big winner. In fact, it was selected on over 50% of the ballots. A pretty big deal considering the ballot had over 150 choices! Additional winners are listed below.

One word of caution! Don’t expect to see these DVDs available tomorrow. First, they have to be delivered, then processed and cataloged into the library system. Some of these movies don’t even have a release date yet and others won’t be released until late March or April. We’ve ordered the ones that are available and we’ll get them processed as quickly as possible, but don’t be frustrated if you can’t get that favorite movie until late in the semester.
