Amigos is a very active student organization with the primary purpose of helping students become more familiar with the Spanish language and the cultures of Spanish-speaking countries.
Come join us for fun activities such as: conversation hours, where you can practice your Spanish in a relaxing and friendly environment; service projects, where we can help others understand more about Spanish language and culture; and film viewings, where we watch some of the latest film productions in Spanish from all over the world.

Der Deutsche Klub (German Club)
Each fall, the German Club sponsors Oktoberfest, our main outreach event and fundraiser that draws attendees from the University and Cookeville community. In the spring there is Kaffee und Kuchen, where German students and club members bake a variety of German confections to sell at 麻豆果冻传媒's annual international festival, Window on the World.
Additionally, in the past, club members have also organized a Faschingsparty, a Wandertag, a Curry Wurst Sauce Competition and Easter Egg painting. Come join the fun!
