International Education Week is coming up November 17-21 and the International Student Services Office is finalizing the events for this week. International Education Week is a week set aside by the U.S. Departments of State and Education to celebrate programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences in the United States.
Each year during International Education week, the ISSO in partnership with international student and student organizations hosts International Coffee Hour at the Campus Crossroads by the AG/IT and Library. This year we will host coffee hour on Monday, November 17 from 1pm-3pm at the Campus Crossroads and we need your help! We need all international students and student organizations to participate by providing coffee, tea, and other beverages as well as sweets and treats from their culture/country for the coffee hour. If you have a game that would be appropriate to play outside during the coffee hour then please let us know.
