Since Fall 2005 the German Section has hosted the annual German-American Day event. This event is centered around the national holiday of the same name which was designed to honor German-American citizens and their contributions to American culture and society. The EMU celebration of this event centers around the following:

‐ to provide EMU students with an on-campus cultural event
‐ to provide EMU students with an opportunity to participate in the event
‐ an opportunity to work together with the students of the German Club, who
  also help to host and fund the event
‐ to highlight features of the EMU German program and the department in
  general for the purpose of recruitment
‐ to recruit high school students (various high school teachers and their
  students are invited)
‐ to promote outreach to and collaboration with area high schools
‐ to promote outreach to the local community (in the past we have invited
  community members to speak at the event)
‐ to promote outreach to the community college community (last year we
  invited WCC students and their teachers)
‐ to honor other EMU faculty colleagues with German heritage by inviting them
  to speak
‐ to honor our donors of endowed scholarships by inviting them to participate in
  the event as speakers, as well as distinguished guests
