Deutches Haus
Kade is the building on campus where German speakers are encouraged to reside. With a Teaching Assistant (TA) overseas from Germany, a Faculty-in-Residence and a fluent Resident Assistant (RA) living in the house, the 35 or so students have many personal resources available to them. The house also boasts a library with over 1,000 German texts, board games and German language videos. Additionally, Kade is visited every Spring Semester by the Max Kade German Writer-in-Residence who takes meals with the students (in a private dining room in Stevenson Dining Hall), teaches colloquia and hosts discussions.
Residents in Kade regularly enjoy the large living room, kitchen, study rooms and practice spaces. Events like concerts, receptions and parties are all regular happenings in the house. Similar to the three other language-based program houses, Kade also requires some German speaking ability; students who are fluent to those just beginning are welcome to fill out an application.
