F&M German

Are you detail-oriented, diplomatic, and at ease in high-pressure situations? We might have a career opportunity for you! We're seeking a new Social Secretary and Protocol Officer to the German Ambassador. 💼

You'll organize events, from seating strategy to state visits (and maybe also act as a florist/bouncer/photographer on occasion). As one of the Embassy's most dynamic positions, you'll need to bring precision, grace—and a touch of humor.

On Friday, October 18, we hosted the second German American Day at F&M! More than 250 high school students of German from 12 schools traveled to campus to participate in a wide range of fun and educational German-themed workshops. F&M students in German 462 (Faris Grbic, Emma Rose Harty, and Ethan Mazurek) designed activities for a session on "German Immigration to PA and the Six Nations, 1700-1776." Thanks to Mariah Ligas and all who made the day a success!

We took an F&M German field trip to the 1719 Museum in Willow Street, just south of Lancaster. We toured the Hans Herr House, the oldest surviving structure in Lancaster County, and the Lancaster Longhouse, a full-sized replica of an indigenous domestic structure.
