First Fridays
The First Fridays Program of The American Language Institute offers a wide range of enrichment activities to promote student involvement and engagement with campus life at The University of Toledo.
On the first Friday of each month, we cooperate with other UToledo departments by inviting guest speakers, taking students to cultural events and trips, and providing students a variety of other opportunities to utilize campus resources for the enhancement of their academic and social life.
Since the initiation of the First Friday Program in August 2015, we have successfully sponsored multiple events with the support of the UToledo Recreation Center, Catharine S. Eberly Center for Women, UToledo Counseling Center, University of Toledo Police Department, International Student Organizations, and UToledo's Invonet.
Over 300 ALI students and many other international students across the campus have taken advantage of these opportunities for exploration, which enrich their academic, social, cultural, and intellectual growth.
