Germanic Languages and Literatures Department

Willst du deutsch lernen? The Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures is among the best in the country. Don't look here for Wirtschafts- (business) German, though; the department is heavily oriented toward literary criticism and philosophy.

Yiddish, Dutch, Swedish, and, oddly, Finnish (there was nowhere else to put it) are also taught under the aegis of the department.

Officially housed in Hamilton Hall, it holds many classes and events in Deutsches Haus.
