French outside of the classroom

The Department of French is happy to provide exciting opportunities to use French outside the classroom during social activities. Join the Department’s Club francophone to meet other students that want to practice French in a fun, friendly and inclusive environment.

The Club Francophone’s Fall season is now in full swing with new activities for 2026-2027.

The Club Francophone

The Club Francophone organizes monthly social activities in French for students of all levels. You don’t need to be enrolled in a French course to participate.

Lead by Justine, our Assistant from France, and some of the Department’s TAs, the Club francophone organizes activities that give students opportunities to use French outside of the classroom. With monthly pub francophone meetings, trivia nights, movie nights and various outings, the Club allows you to connect with other students eager to practice their French.
