The beginning of the semester has marked the opening of Casa Italia at the WM Keck Center for Language Study.
In conversations with the Italian faculty and the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, Italian Intern Giuseppe Grispino proposed the idea of Casa Italia to promote the study of Italian here at Colgate. Besides the Tuesday Table of Babel at Frank Dining Hall, Casa Italia integrates and supports the elementary and intermediate language courses offered at Colgate. Casa Italia aims to bring together and connect students and faculty interested in learning or practicing Italian. At Casa Italia we organize peer-tutoring sessions and support students through the whole learning process. Students also have the possibility to watch movies, TV programs, read newspapers and magazines in the original. In other words, being in Casa Italia feels like being in Italy away from Italy.
Casa Italia is open on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at the Keck Center when classes are in session.
Mondays from 4.30 pm to 5.30pm.
Wednesdays from 8pm to 10pm.
Thursdays from 2pm to 5pm.
Learning Italian has never been easier!
Benvenuti a Casa Italia!
