The Fall German Campus Weeks are sponsored annually by the German Embassy in Washington, DC. The topic this year was “Germany meets the US.” The UW German campus community participated with several exciting activities inside and outside the classroom such as a weekly film series on “Heimat meets Hollywood”, planned by our lead TA Jasmin Krakenberg; a guest lecture by Professor Joyce Mushaben from the University of Missouri on challenges facing Germany and Europe today; a student writing contest in a European studies course, both organized by Professor Sabine Lang, the director of CWES; and a number of class projects in the core course on German cultural studies (German 322), taught by Professor Sabine Wilke.
Here you find the link to the final class project website for German 322 and the public presentation of the projects at the end of the quarter: https://sites.google.com/a/uw.edu/german-cultural-studies/
