Clubs & Organizations
Seek to be different.

Seek your unique purpose and meaning.
The Department of English and Foreign Languages offers several organizations and clubs that provide you with opportunities to develop and showcase your unique skills. You will also build relationships and community with like-minded individuals.
The English Club
The Alabama A&M University English Club is an organization by students, about students, and for students. AAMU English Club members participate in reading groups, hold workshops and student-based forums, volunteer for community services such as tutoring and reading to K-12 students in our area. We even design our own custom-made club t-shirts!
Our club offers students a wonderful opportunity to express themselves and build their resumes. Although we are composed mainly of AAMU English Majors, non-English Majors are also invited to join!

The Spanish Club
The AAMU Spanish Club meets several times each semester reviewing Spanish vocabulary and engaging in conversations using what we have learned. In recent years, the Spanish Club has had many students to join the club and realize that having a conversation in a foreign language is not as tough as they imagined it would be. In fact, they have expressed feelings of pleasure being able to communicate with people of different cultural backgrounds.
Join the Spanish Club this semester as they carry out many fun events!
In February, the club will host a conversation on the 6th in McCalep/McIntosh Hall Room 206 from 12:30 to 1:20 p.m. and a workshop on the 21st in McCalep/McIntosh Hall Room 206 from 12:30-2:00 p.m.
In March, they will host a workshop on the 6th in McCalep/McIntosh Hall Room 219 from 12:30-2:00 p.m. and a conversation on the 26th in McCalep/McIntosh Hall Room 206 from 12:30-1:20 p.m.
