Intercultural Council

Our Intercultural Council aims to collaborate with like-minded student groups and facilitate fun, educational programs that promote intercultural dialogue and understanding.

I think that common ground of belonging is going to make it so much easier for people to open up and make real connections. If you keep on hanging around people with the same perspectives as you, there's no other real learning curve here. We were very proud as a Vietnamese Student Association team to make that happen at С��Ƶ��.
