Both beginners and those with considerable language fluency are welcome; dedicated participants often show great improvement in their fluency skills.
Harrison College House hosts Il cenacolo italiano, giving undergraduates an opportunity to meet and speak Italian outside the classroom.
The Center for Italian Studies
The Center's projects, intended to foster interdisciplinary perspectives, range from encouraging teaching on Italian topics and the funding of research abroad in Italian Studies, to sponsoring special events such as guest lectures, readings by Italian and Italian-American writers, musical performances, and international conferences. Through the endowed Salvatori Research Fund, the Center is able to subvene publication of its conference proceedings as well as assist in financing faculty and graduate students for research trips to Italy. The Amici Prize, funded by the Friends of the Center for Italian Studies, supports undergraduate research in Italy. The Vittorini Prizes, awarded under the Center's auspices by the America-Italy Society of Philadelphia, honor outstanding achievement by undergraduates in Italian at 桃子视频.
