Supporting International Students
During Winter Break
The end of the semester can bring about feelings of loneliness and homesickness for international students who are not going home or traveling during winter break. As university activities wind down and their peers leave campus, faculty and staff can be instrumental in helping international students make the most of their vacation. Reaching out to these students to share important information and encouraging them to take advantage of the opportunity to experience the holiday season in Cleveland can make a real difference. The Center for International Affairs has some tips to help offer support and suggestions to students.
