IEEC Goes to the Cloverdale Citrus Fair RECAP
Friday’s trip to the Cloverdale Citrus Fair was a great, last trip of the semester. Ten IEEC students made the 40-minute trip north to check out the 130th annual fair! We were able to try classic fair foods like corn dogs, a brick of fries, and funnel cake. There were some fun rides, a magic show, and plenty of shopping booths to check out. It was great to see the international students experience a traditional American fair.
Coffee & Culture Recap
IEEC’s European Coffee & Culture was our busiest one yet! Quite a few students who will be traveling to Europe during the upcoming school year were able to stop by, talk to our European international students, and try some new snacks. We had treats from Sweden, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy, along with an incredible Spanish drink. Students were able to ask questions about studying abroad as well as make plans to meet up once they’re abroad! Thank you to everyone who came by.
