The deadline to reserve a table is March 31st, so it is fast approaching. Look at your schedules and see if you might be free on April 7th, from 11:00-1:30. Of course, if you cannot be there the whole time with your country’s table, your students can help! I’ll be there to help too. Traditionally, Culture Fest tables include a display of some sort – whether it is a poster board with information about the country or language, or some traditional clothes, or art, etc. I’m also happy to help you think of ideas – this is the sort of thing that makes the job fun!
Please let me know by this Friday if you’d like to help promote your language, and we’ll work together to make sure that we’re well-represented at the festival.
Update: So far, three of our languages will be represented at the Dunwoody Culture Fest. Egli and I are working on a Brazil display (for Portuguese), Professor Novokshanova from the ESL Department is helping with a Russian display, and Professor Bounds of the Economics Department will be hosting a display on China. Please let me know if you would like to help with any of these displays, or if you'd like to reserve a table for another country.
ReplyDeleteMore updates: Alright, so Jae and the Korean Club are going to host a Korean display, and Professors Fallon and Ghanem are working on a Palestine table and would love help from our Arabic students. Now if we can just make sure that there are tables for Japanese and Italian, all of our languages will be represented. Check with your students, and if there are any volunteers for these languages, I'll help them with the reservation process.
ReplyDeleteOne more table: Lebanon - led by three of our Arabic 2001 students!
