La Table Francaise
La Table Française is a weekly conversation table which takes place in the new Great Hall, on the JB's Roasts and Chops side (look for the table with a French flag). It is open to everyone in the Duke Community who would like to speak French with us! All levels welcome.
French Cultural Events
There are many ways you can take part in cultural activities every semester and come practice your French with us. From learning the art of flipping crêpes, tasting smelly but delicious cheese, watching and discussing French and Francophone films, visiting the Nasher’s French collection, dancing to African rythms, and more ! The best way to be informed on dates, times and locations of these events every semester is by checking our Facebook page : French@Duke, and if you are currently enrolled in a French class, to check your Sakai and ask your professor. All Duke students, faculty and staff are welcome to attend (even if you are not currently enrolled in a French class at Duke). We look forward to meeting you at our events ! A bientôt !
Questions about cultural events ? Ask your current professor in your French class, or email the cultural advisor for the French Language Program : Prof. Germain Choffart at gc56@duke.edu
