Students at Carleton are enthusiastically engaged in a variety of extracurricular activities that promote French and Francophone cultures on campus. French table, soccer games, African celebrations, francophone music shows, slang workshops, and game nights are only a few examples of the many activities organized by the Language Associate and the French Student Council. Students also have the opportunity to interact with distinguished visitors from around the Francophone world, attend French film festivals, and participate in excursions to the Twin Cities.
