Adjustment to U.S. Culture Workshop
Thursday, September 4th
4:00 pm - 5:00 pm at the Plaza Academic Resource Center – Jardine
Are you excited to be in the U.S. or are you counting the days until you can return to your home country? Ever wonder why your U.S. classmate says, “Hi, how are you?” and then walks away without waiting for your response? This workshop is designed for students, scholars, and dependents in their first year in the U.S. who would like to talk about adjusting to U.S. culture and learn about and discuss cultural differences between the United States and their home country. Learn about the normal pattern of adjusting to a new culture, hear some tips for adjusting, and discover resources on campus and in the community. Now is your chance to ask questions you have wanted to ask! Presented by Tomas Seisdedos, ISSS graduate assistant and Viktoria Gramp, sponsored student coordinator.

Join us with Basic Language Training (BLT)! Learn the basics of a new language and culture. Build on your already incredible language skills

Coffee Hour is a culturally enriching experience designed to give international students a chance to present their country and culture to others in an open and relaxed setting. Coffee Hour is free and open to the public.
