Indigenous Language Table
2023-09-06 13:00 - 14:00 | Discovery Building
Located in the ID Hub, Rm 1145. A Indigenous Language Table is designed to enable language learners to develop spoken language skills outside of the classroom, build community, strengthen language purpose, and normalize indigenous language with representation. Hosted by Enwejig and the Illuminating Discovery invite students, including former students and indigenous language learners who want to develop their skills, & members of the at-large community. This is not a language class. Attendees will practice language skills.
