Duke’s Center for French and Francophone Studies (CFFS) is the hub for all people and things related to, and interested in, the French language in its diverse expressions. Its home is the Department of Romance Studies but it reaches out across the Duke campus. By nature, it is multidisciplinary and as international as our faculty and students. It celebrates, and interrogates, the protean nature of “Francophonie” through public events and discussions, collaborative research projects, and service-oriented initiatives.
