Students across campus join for a variety of activities throughout the academic year, including Koch-/Backabende (cooking and baking events), Kaffeestunden (coffee hours), Liederabend (song evenings, where we sing and/or share songs and discuss the lyrics), Spaziergänge auf dem Campus (walks on campus) for German conversation, Wandertage (hiking days) in German, Lesegruppen (reading groups) and more. Future events in the works include visiting the Cincinnati shop at Jungle Jim's and eat at the Hofbräuhaus and German Immersion Weekends (<em>on delay due to the pandemic</em>). We collaborate with other student groups on campus to put on intercultural and cross-cultural events.</p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Follow us on Instagram:</strong> @hanovergermanclub</p> <p>Come share your ideas and interests in the German-speaking cultures!
