Knowledge Bowl & Language Expressions - click to view slideshow



The Language Bowl and Language Expressions competition is an event co-hosted by UNR's Department of Foreign Languages & Literatures and the Washoe County School District's World Language Collaborative.

The competition is between foreign language students at the high school and middle school grades. Each language is divided into levels; student teams from the same level compete against each other. The Language Expressions component consists of students reciting poetry, performing skits and various other performances.

The students walk away with trophies, certificates and big smiles!
