Learn a Less Commonly Taught Language!

Center for World Languages & Cultures, Sturm Hall Room 391H

Is there a language you’d like to learn that DU doesn’t offer for credit? The Center for World Languages & Cultures (CWLC) offers many non-credit courses in less commonly taught languages. Classes planned for Winter 2024 include: ASL, Hindi, Farsi, Dari, Korean, Amharic, modern Greek, Swedish, Burmese, and Swahili. Don’t see your language on our list? Let us know! If we can find you a language partner, we can create a course just for you. Email cwlc@du.edu for more information.

Lecture: Gender Based Violence in Italian Film and Media: Representation and Resistance

Wed, November 8 (4:00pm to 5:00 pm) | Garden Room at the Chambers Center

Led by Dr Bernadette Luciano from the University of Auckland and the Anna-Maglione-Sie Scholar in Residence, this lecture on Gender-Based violence (GBV) discusses the cultural and linguistic features that account for the challenges in recognizing and eradicating GBV in Italy and the role that the arts, and in particular cinema and documentary play in providing a less sensationalized and more nuanced examination of the issue. The lecture is free and open to the public.
