International Education Celebration

It is a fun event where you can stop by, say hello and goodbye! Be sure to register at the link above!
This year we will be putting on a special slide show highlighting our study away alumni and international students who are graduating. We invite you to complete this quick questionnaire so that you can have your own slide! All graduates who graduated last year or are graduating this spring, summer, or fall are welcome to participate! Please complete the online questionnaire by Thursday, May 6th in order to be included in the celebration.
Additionally, everyone who submits a questionnaire by May 6th will be entered into a raffle to win a free international graduation medallion!

Sabrina Blais is a Biochemistry and Theatre Arts major who will be studying away at the University of Ghana, Accra, Ghana for the 2021-2022 Academic Year! They are looking forward to seeing what Ghanaian food is like! Sabrina is also hoping to go to the local markets whenever they have the chance.
