This is a site for speakers (and students) of the international language Esperanto at the University of Rochester, in Rochester, New York, USA.
Here you can learn about Esperanto itself, Esperanto at UR, our beginners’ course, and our conversation groups.
We post occasional updates to a Facebook page and a mailing list.
