The Esperanto Club of William & Mary was founded in 2008 by Nicholas Woods "To promote the knowledge of the language Esperanto and to create opportunities to learn, speak, and appreciate the language" 1. The club was briefly affiliated with Hello WM (a no longer active student-led language teaching program), but maintained its own autonomy.
Esperanto is a constructed language designed to be easy to learn and facilitate international communication.
