Our Aims
The Adelaide University German Club aims to promote german culture in South
Australia. We celebrate its language, food and drink - particularly the fine beer! There is no requirement to
be studying German, or to be of German heritage, just to have a good time with great people.
The AUGC has a great tradition of hosting some of the best events in the Uni Year. We are
strictly listed as a "Cultural Club" but most members feel we are more aptly described as a social club, since we are so very
social!
We meet at Kaffeeklatsch once a week to say "hi" and really, that's about it.
There is free coffee and cake for all, and a chance to get involved in Club Events. Not everyone knows each other, and if you don't rock along and give it a shot, how do you expect to get to know us?
Held at 1pm on Thursdays, in the WP Rogers Room, Union Building.
In order to help those studying German, we will be holding a German Speaking Hour
once a week throughout the year. This tradition had sadly lapsed in recent times, but returned in full swing in 2003.
Email the club to find out more details about where and when - and for those of you who can't make Kaffeeklatsch every
Thursday, it's a great time to catch up with the Club and what's been happening.

History of Our Club
Our Club was founded in 1953, making it one of the oldest clubs on campus!
But age isn't everything. Our events are some of the most popular and well-attended on campus.
Throughout the year we hold our Not-The Oktoberfest, Cabaret, Annual Play
and Trivia Night. Not-The-Oktoberfest suffered a small hiatus a few years back, but was resurrected in 2000 and is now
back in full swing.
In the past few years, we have performed a number of different plays, ranging
from comedy to more serious pieces. The cabaret will be re-introduced in a new format this year, by virtue of some hard
working Committee members keen to try something different.
Our award winning Trivia Night will be run again this year jointly with the French Club, and possibly
an amalgamation with the Spanish Club too - but we can promise this isn't becoming the EU! For more info, check out
the links above.
