You are invited to the Culture Connections series! This event series aims to give intercultural and interculturally minded students a space to hang out, enjoy free lunch, and connect with campus partners. All are welcome!
These events aim to help intercultural students build community. Building a strong community is important for students, as it fosters a sense of belonging, support, and shared understanding. By connecting with peers from diverse backgrounds, students can exchange cultural perspectives, create meaningful friendships, and develop a support network that enriches their academic and personal lives.
This event series is hosted by Student Affairs, Title IX, All In, the Carolyn Barber-Pierre Center for Intercultural Life, the Office of International Students and Scholars, The Well for Health Promotion, the Celia Scott Weatherhead School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine Office of Student Experience, the School of Medicine Office of Academic Excellence & Community Engagement, and TU Fit.
