In addition to the regular course offerings, the Spanish Program offers a number of co-curricular activities designed to support the academic program.

Each term La Mezcla, the Spanish club, organizes various events such as excursions to Hispanic restaurants, trips to Detroit's barrio, visits to local and regional museums featuring Hispanic exhibitions, and viewing of films in the Spanish language.

The tertulia or social hour takes place bi-weekly and is designed for students who wish to converse in Spanish with other students outside the normal classroom setting. The Spanish Program also offers special film series which provide students with visual treatment of important aspects of Hispanic culture. Guest lecturers and discussions with area business persons and government officials are also a frequent part of the program.

The Honors Convocation is a gathering of our best students, along with their families and friends, to recognize and celebrate their achievements during the academic year. For our top three majors in the upper level classes, scholarships are awarded to assist with the cost of books or in their study abroad with our program in Valencia, Spain.
