Language House
 
undefined

The Language House, in Boldt Hall on West Campus, is Cornell’s language-learning residence. Part of the Alice Cook House community, this unique living-learning program is for students who want to become comfortably fluent in Arabic, French, German, Japanese, Mandarin, and Spanish. Weekly dinners and programs hosted by live-in Native Speakers provide many opportunities to practice the target language and learn about the country’s culture before, after, or in lieu of study abroad experience. Regular inter-section and house-wide programs create a close-knit, communal atmosphere for learning, fun, and lasting friendships.
