Language House Fosters Cultural Experience

November 8, 2007 - 12:00am
By Jasmine Marcus

Cornell students have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a foreign language without ever having to leave Ithaca. Students with an intermediate knowledge of Arabic, French, German, Japanese, Mandarin or Spanish can choose to live in Boldt Hall’s language houses, a part of the Alice Cook House on West Campus.

Students live in the language houses in order to become fluent in the language of their choice and to learn more about the culture of the various places where their target language is spoken.

Mike Magdovitz ’10 called the Language House “an interesting place to live,” saying that although he lives in the French part of the house, he also has the opportunity to practice his Spanish on a daily basis.
