The Center is maintained for the purpose of fostering contacts among foreign students in the Uni- versity. visitors have presented talks, some illustrated, and faculty members have also very frequently contributed to the conversation. Successful mu- sical evenings, with both French folk and popular songs in order, have also been held. Customarily an informal social hour is held after the evening meal and generally a banquet has climaxed the summer's activities. To Prepare French Meals For special occasions meals in the French House have been prepared and served in the French manner. French periodicals are available to the students and in the past it has been noted that the varied group of residents from many parts of the country have provided stimulating contacts, thus giving the students so- cial as well aas practical language value from their summer's work. Further information on the Deu- tsches Haus may be obtained at the German office; on the Maison Fran- caise from M. Jobin of the French Department or by inquiry at the of- fice of the Dean of Women.
