Missing summer already? Don't worry, there are plenty of autumn celebrations on campus too!🍂
Vechornytsi is a traditional Ukrainian youth gathering that historically took place on autumn and winter evenings, bringing people together through folk singing, storytelling, traditional games, and dancing. Derived from the Ukrainian word for "evening" (vechir), it was a core part of rural social life.

At BCB, Vechornytsi is organized by the MRII Collective, a Ukrainian-born project that advocates for the visibility and agency of underrepresented voices. The collective started its activities to counter Russian imperial influence in Eastern Europe and beyond, as well as to share Ukrainian culture at BCB.

Last weekend, Bard College Berlin Civic Engagement participated in the International Culture Festival in Berlin-Pankow. 🎉 BCB students participated in the program of performances, and staff and student initiative leaders from the BCB Race Against Racism had a stand at the festival. 🎶💃

The festival celebrated cultural diversity through music, dance, food, art, and more. Engaging with our local community is longstanding a pillar of BCB's civic values. ❤️

Do we ever speak German on campus? Despite most of BCB's classes being taught in English, all BCB students are required to achieve German proficiency up to B1 level.

And for the most dedicated ones (or those who end up falling in love with the German language), there is DerDieDas Haus🏡, an on-campus learning and living project that brings native and non-native speakers together as flatmates.

This semester's first DerDieDas Haus meeting opened with welcoming remarks from coordinator Dr. Martin Widmann, followed by the "language pledge," an agreement in which students commit to using German in their daily lives to the best of their abilities.

Each student also received a German book for their "Bücherregal" and a tote bag as a housewarming gift, thanks to a generous donation from the DAAD. The DAAD has kindly supported the project from the beginning.

Have you heard? The Race Against Racism is already next week! 🏃‍➡️👟

It is organized by BCB students to mobilize collective action against racism and discrimination. In preparation for this year's event, the BCB community came together for a screen-printing session to create promotional materials. Students had the chance to print T-shirts and tote bags, as well as create their own designs🎨

The weather in Berlin is getting colder, but that doesn't mean you have to stop exploring nature in the city! 🌱 The Berlin Botanical Garden is open year-round and makes for a great activity with friends: First-year students visited on an L&T excursion earlier in the year. 🌿
