Discussion | Multilingualism in the U.S.: Do Americans Need More Than One Language?
Today, given the global economy and cultural diversity, the subject of multilingualism has become more important than ever in the scientific, political and public debate. At the same time, however, American schools at every level have reduced foreign-language programs. While more than half of the European population and an increasing number in other parts of the world can converse in a second language, only a quarter of all Americans report speaking a language other than English.
What is multilingualism worth and how can the long-term reality of linguistic diversity in the U.S. be promoted taking into account a variety of regional, national and supranational interests?
Join us for an insightful roundtable discussion celebrating this year’s European Day of Languages. Different views on multilingualism will be presented and discussed from a U.S. and European perspective along their educational, economic, social and cultural fault lines.
The panel will be moderated by author and business correspondent for The Economist, Robert Lane Greene, and will include Piet Van Avermaet, Center for Diversity and Learning at University of Ghent, Fabrice Jaumont, Embassy of France (TBC), Christopher Harwood, Slavic Department at Columbia University, Angelica Infante, NYS Education Department, Kim Potowski, Department of Hispanic Linguistics at University of Illinois Chicago, and Werner Sollors, Department of English at Harvard University.

Lecture | Framing the Immigrant Movement as about Rights, Family, or Economics: Which Appeals Resonate and for Whom?

Lecturer Irene Bloemraad is an associate professor of sociology and Thomas Garden Barnes Chair of Canadian Studies at the University of California, Berkeley, and the author of Becoming a Citizen: Incorporating Immigrants and Refugees in the United States and Canada.

The skeletal remains of the High Line’s elevated tracks set the perfect scene for a spooky evening. Join a journey to the creepier side of New York City’s most unique park.

If the moon hangs right perhaps you’ll witness the spectacle of a ghostly ship floating down the Hudson River; is it the long forgotten crew of Henry Hudson’s Half-Moon warning sailors not to go to sea? Or is it Captain Kidd protecting the treasure he buried on Liberty Island? Venture at your own risk through the dark side of High Line.
