The ERC’s Language Link program offers BU students, faculty, staff, and alumni an opportunity to engage in language conversation groups in Spanish, French, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and English. These small, informal weekly discussions often become cultural exchanges rather than just conversation. Through Language Link, individuals expand their vocabulary and cultural experiences and knowledge in addition to improving their pronunciation. While Language Link can complement related coursework or study abroad, the goal of Language Link is to have fun in conjunction with increasing language proficiency, confidence, and social interaction in another language.
