oberlin's strongest majors

<p>both Russian and German are small departments, but have strong faculty and enthusiastic majors; they both have “theme houses” for those who want to live with other language majors/speakers, with native speaker residents; the German department has a guest professor each year from Germany, a writer, etc., which adds to the diversity of the department’s offerings. Some courses in each are taught in English. The German department also offers courses in German film (in English). The winter term offers an intensive German and an intensive Russian course. One of the “Oberlin stories” is about taking a winter term Russian course.</p>
