Tamara Caudill’s paper on Jean Renart’s Escoufle considered ‘Why Toul?’ Strongly inspired to visit now especially to view migratory kites. @IMdFS
We had so much fun following @JUalumni_family Katie Fritsche (‘22, BA English, French minor) this summer on social media as she documented her Arabic studies in Morocco. Katie is an MA student at @uofl. 🐬 ✈️ 🇲🇦 ciee.org/go-abroad/college-s…

Félicitations! 🎉
Joseph Brantley (‘23, French/Music) presented a paper at #kzoo2023 on the use of the portative organ in the trouvère repertory. He was one of only 6 undergraduates accepted to present their research.
Joseph is a student of @tbcaudill & Cristina Raurich.
Félicitations, Joseph! Joseph graduated last month with a BA in Music and French. He has presented previously at NCUR and SAMLA, on troubadour lyric and the lays of Marie de France respectively. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #kzoo2023

Did you know that French chivalry is behind a #MayDay tradition in 🇫🇷?
In the 1500s, Charles IX 👑 used to gift the Lily of the Valley flower to ladies in his court
From 1889 onwards, 🇫🇷people started handing out the flower on the streets on #1May for fraternity & #WorkersRights
ALT Happy #MayDay to you!

HE'S BACK! Lupin returns on October 5th for the third installment of the heist story inspired by the French classic.
Chapeau to those who guessed the date correctly, as Netflix was more than a little vague in their initial announcement... @OmarSy @netflix @NetflixFR
