Hours
Oldenborg is open for lunch during the academic year, Monday through Friday, noon to 1 p.m.
Oldenborg Center at Pomona welcomes you to join its foreign-language lunch tables. Enjoy lunch and converse in foreign languages at tables mentored by native speakers.
Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish tables meet daily. On Wednesdays, we also feature beginner tables in these six languages. Oldenborg requests that lunch guests honor its tradition of supporting foreign languages; those who wish to converse in English are respectfully asked to visit other college dining halls.
If there is a language you would like to practice that is not listed here, please email Oldenborg or call (909) 621-8018.
