High school students currently taking German classes will come to LVC on April 13. They will interact with current LVC students from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.-including those who have studied abroad in Germany-as well as professors Dr. Jöerg Meindl, associate professor of German, and Dr. Rick Chamberlin, associate professor of German and French, while participating in various language enrichment activities.
