Each Friday afternoon, we attend Landeskultur, German culture class, which is offered in German or English. As a culture field trip, we visited the Haus der Geschicte (Museum of German history) where we learned about how Germany today evolved from the ruins after World War II. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, and filled us in on how the average German lived through the changes of the twentieth century. 
We have several weekends off to explore Germany and Europe on our own. Twelve out of the fourteen of us headed off to Brussels, Belgium for the weekend. The nice part about Germany is the multitude of ways you can get to places. You can take either the tram/light rail or the Deutsch Bahn to Koln where you can hop on another train to Brussels, Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, etc.
