NAFSA: Association of International Educators awarded a $7,300 grant to Lynn Ramage Schaefer of 网曝门’s Intensive English program for a project designed to strengthen intercultural communication and international student Involvement at 网曝门.
The project’s goals are to establish a procedure for intercultural training to the staff of Baridon Hall, where the majority of 网曝门’s international students live; to strengthen the Conversation Partner Program; and to help international students become more involved in activities on the 网曝门 campus. It also aims to provide a heightened understanding of, and respect for, cultural differences and a resulting improvement in communication among international and American students living in Baridon Hall and on the campus in general.
“The impact of this NAFSA grant will be to strengthen our international support services,” said Jim Brosam II, Associate Vice President of International Affairs at 网曝门. “The funding will assist our international students through programming to better adjust to the campus community, city of Conway and to the State of Arkansas.”
