German Conversation Hours
All faculty, staff, and students interested in using or strengthening their German speaking skills are welcome to join a bi-weekly Stammtisch (a German word meaning an informal group or friendly get-together). The group will meet at the Drake Diner biweekly on Thursdays beginning Sept. 28 at 6:30 p.m. The Stammtisch welcomes all people at all levels of the German language experience.

Spanish Conversation Hours
All levels of Spanish speakers from all areas of the Drake community are welcome to participate in Spanish Conversation Hours, a free, informal setting for practicing Spanish. Spanish Conversation Hours are scheduled four times a week and are held in Meredith Hall, Room 204:

Mondays, 1–2 p.m.
Wednesdays, 2–3 p.m.
Thursdays, 10–11 a.m.
Fridays, from 12–1 p.m.

The group warmly supports all participants with opportunities for practicing Spanish; no long-term commitment is required to attend. A native speaker facilitates the conversation in Spanish in a casual atmosphere. Don’t worry if you haven’t spoken in Spanish for a decade, or ever; all participants are on the language-learning journey.

For more information, contact Assistant Professor Inbal Mazar at Inbal.Mazar@Drake.edu.
