The Spanish Club was created to allow Gateway students, faculty and staff with the opportunity to expand their language learning experience beyond the classroom setting. It coordinates and maintains student activities such as weekly meetings, travel study abroad tours, volunteer opportunities and events such as the Spanish Night. The goal of the organization is to create an environment in which language and cultural awareness are viewed and experienced by all participants. The weekly meetings are held at both the Edgewood and Boone campuses. These meetings are informal and fun!
