The American Council on Germany (ACG), an independent, nonpartisan nonprofit organization and the leading U.S.-based forum for strengthening German-American relations, is calling for applications for their “Carl Duisburg Fellowship for Future German Transatlanticists”. The Council examines German-American relations on three levels: the bilateral relationship, the ties between Europe and the United States, and how the transatlantic partnership can meet global challenges.

On January 17, 2019, ASL's Prof. Katja Kanzler held her inaugural lecture at Felix-Klein-Hörsaal in the Neues Paulinum. Speaking in front of an audience of about 50 students, faculty, and guests, she addressed the topic: “Von der Krisenhaftigkeit des Romans, 'Bookish Books' und der Politik des Literarischen in den USA des 21. Jahrhunderts.” She was introduced and welcomed by Prof. Beat Siebenhaar, Dean of the Philologische Fakultät, as is tradition. 

On the occasion of CBS releasing the second season of the “Star Trek: Discovery” series, “Das Filmmagazin” interviewed ASL’s Katja Kanzler discussing the ongoing popularity of the Star Trek series.
