Message from the President

Dear students and members, past, present and future,

The new semester holds exciting things in store for the Germany society! As president, I would warmly like to welcome all of you to the German society in AY 2010/2011. The German society holds many activities during the semester, and we are going to kick off the semester with our Welcome Tea, where we will update members on the present activities we have, as well as introduce the core committee and announce our elections for the posts of project directors, editor and liaison officer.

We will be coming down to the German classes during the first week of semester to personally say hi to all of you. The German society has always been a place where students who are interested in aspects of German language and culture get to meet German exchange students, hone their German language ability, as well as interact with the German speaking community in NUS. We look forward to meeting you next week during the welcome tea. We will be posting up details of the welcome tea shortly on the website.

Please feel free to email any enquiries you may have to frag.mal.uns@gmail.com. We are always glad to hear from our members.

Regards,
Rachel Tan
President
NUS Students' German Society
