Russkij Dom
The Russian House is located in Gregory College House at 3941 Irving Street, across from Saint Mary's Church. We are a little cozy community of enthusiasts who are interested in Russian language and culture. We have our little rituals that help us improve our Russian skills: we meet every Monday to talk in Russian on a variety of topics over tea or coffee with tasty treats that we get from the Russian quarters of Philadelphia. Together with the Slavic Department we host various activities: movies, teas, lectures, excursions, and parties. If you want, you can also get one course unit of credit (Russian 399) for living in the House. In order to do so, you simply reside in the house for an entire academic year and register in one of the following sequences: Russian 001-002, 003-004, 311-312, or 411-413. You are supposed to participate in Russian House activities throughout the year showing up for three activities a week. Note that only one course unit of credit may be earned in this manner.

Everyone who already speaks or wants to speak or to listen to Russian is welcome to all of our activities. Feel free to bring your friends.
