Social Policy

The French department sponsors a number of social and academic events during the year, including the graduation ceremony. The Maison holds traditional events such as the Halloween party for francophone children, the Thanksgiving dinner for residents and faculty members of the University, the Holiday reception for the residents, the French department, and the associate members of the Maison. Social activities organized by residents of the Maison must be authorized in advance by the director and are restricted to two guests per resident. Because the Maison falls under the jurisdiction concerning the consumption of alcoholic beverages, all of its residents must comply with the University of Virginia alcohol policy published in the Undergraduate Record, pp. 32.
