- The Office of International Students and Scholars

Date: Friday, November 22, 2024

Time: 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Location: Lundring Events Center

The World Fair is a unique opportunity for international students to showcase the beauty and diversity of their country, connect with fellow students, and contribute to a vibrant cultural exchange within our university. During the event, each student or group of students will have the chance to decorate a table with items representing their country of origin, offering a visual and immersive experience for attendees. We will have culinary delights and entertainment by students.

We encourage you to embrace this opportunity to share your unique culture, make new connections, and contribute to the cultural mosaic that makes our university community so special. Please feel free to bring your friends to this event.

For more information please contact the CGE at global@callutheran.edu.
