The German Language Week came to a lovely conclusion on Wednesday as the German Department hosted a gala for some 70 students.

Generously supported by the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Department had hosted a series of events from 12-19 October to celebrate Germany's history and vibrant cultural life. A great number of students attended the week-long extravaganza. They watched films and they made films. They learned about our Berlin program, enjoyed fine German food, and competed for prizes. Here are the winners of the various contests.
